Ephesians 5:32 in context

The verses around it, from Ephesians 5.

28 In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

29 Indeed, no one ever hated his own body, but he nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church.

30 For we are members of His body.

31 “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”

32 This mystery is profound, but I am speaking about Christ and the church.

33 Nevertheless, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
