Abstract

The letter of 1 Peter 3:1-7 is a controversial text with the assumption that the author has demeaned the position of women, moreover the patriarchal culture at that time did not treat women with respect. Patriarchal culture has also been deeply rooted in the Toba Batak tribe, where the majority adheres to Christianity. This study aims to explore advice regarding a harmonious household according to 1 Peter 3:1-7 and evaluate it in the Toba Batak culture. This study uses qualitative research with a descriptive approach. Although some experts argue that the advice in this text demeans women, this article finds that the harmony family according to Apostle Peter's advice emphasizes the joint submission of husband and wife to the Word of God, and the equality of husband and wife’s rights and obligations. This study evaluates the culture of the Toba Batak tribe through in-depth interviews and observations and finds that there are several Batak Toba cultures that are not in line with the advice in Petrus 3:1-7 regarding a harmonious household. Keywords: Submission; Marriage; Toba BatakAbstrak Surat 1 Petrus 3:1-7 merupakan teks yang kontroversial dengan anggapan bahwa penulis surat ini telah merendahkan posisi wanita, terlebih budaya patriarkat pada masa itu tidak memperlakukan wanita dengan hormat. Budaya patriarkat juga telah mengakar kuat di suku Batak Toba yang mayoritas menganut agama Kristen. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi nasihat mengenai rumah tangga harmonis menurut 1 Petrus 3:1-7 dan mengevaluasinya dalam budaya suku Batak Toba. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif. Walaupun beberapa ahli berpendapat nasihat dalam teks ini merendahkan kaum wanita, artikel ini menemukan bahwa nasihat Rasul Petrus menekankan penundukan suami dan istri secara bersama-sama terhadap Firman Tuhan, yang disertai dengan kesetaraan hak dan kewajiban suami dan istri merupakan kunci keharmonisan keluarga sesuai nasihat Rasul Petrus. Penelitian ini melakukan evaluasi terhadap budaya suku Batak Toba melalui wawancara mendalam dan observasi dan menemukan terdapat beberapa budaya-budaya suku Batak Toba yang tidak senada dengan nasihat di dalam Petrus 3:1-7 mengenai rumah tangga harmonis.Kata Kunci: Penundukan; Pernikahan; Batak Toba
