Gill's Notes on the Bible

Husbands, love your wives,.... :-.

and be not bitter against them; turning love into hatred of their persons; ruling with rigour, and in a tyrannical manner; behaving towards them in a morose, churlish, and ill natured way; giving them either bitter words, or blows, and denying them their affection, care, provision, protection, and assistance, but using them as servants, or worse. All which is barbarous, brutish, and unchristian, and utterly unbecoming the Gospel.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Husbands, love your wives ... - Notes, Ephesians 4:25-29.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 19. Be not bitter against them. — Wherever bitterness is, there love is wanting. And where love is wanting in the married life, there is hell upon earth.
