On Marriage and Family Life by John Chrysostom
While he does not suggest any change in the outward structures of men and women's relationships, he expects them to be transfigured by Christian love. When two become one in Christ, their love can enable them to transcend any limitations imposed by the world. Depending on their spiritual gifts, either one may teach the other, and both together may fill their common life with as much holiness as any monks.
