Another example of the wife being given instruction by God to tell the husband. This clearly shows the role of women in a relationship where there is male leadership. This is an example of Sarah the prophetess, speaking God's Word to her master Abraham. In church leadership, an elder may be the leader but his wife supports by providing godly counsel at home.
