I've heard this means basically sharing God's Word with your wife. Letting God's word transform her. Certainly the translations seem to indicate that.
Ephesians 5:26 NASB so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word
Ephesians 5:26 NKJV
that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word,
Ephesians 5:26 NIV
to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,
But when I read the greek, I see something different.

Ephesians 5:26 That her he should be holyizing/hallowing cleansing to the bath of the water in declaration.
I have no idea what this means. Or did the translators get this right?
Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you.
