Ezekiel 7:14 "And let it not be said that a man should treat his wife with cruelty, but rather, although he is ruler in his house, he shall not mistreat her nor beat her for her wanton ways with a rod thicker through than his thumb. The use of handcuffs and other devices of restraint shall also be totally optional, although certainly good in the eyes of the Lord."
