Ephesians 5:23
You say my interpretation is unbiblical.
So give us your interpretation.
Back up a few verses, now read it. Actually, start even further back. And now keep reading, because Paul continues talking on this subject into the 6th chapter.
"
Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart, giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.
Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands.
Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish. In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, because we are members of his body. “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.” Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
Bondservants, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, with a sincere heart, as you would Christ, not by the way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man, knowing that whatever good anyone does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether he is a bondservant or is free. Masters, do the same to them, and stop your threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and that there is no partiality with him." - Ephesians 5:15-6:9
See where I emphasized the text in bold, that's the key here. All of those things Paul says after that are connected to it, what does "submitting to one another" look like?
"Wives, your husbands as to the Lord" (the Greek text is lacking the verb, which is being borrowed from the preceding statement, i.e. "submit to one another")
"Husbands love your wives as Christ loved the Church", how did Christ love the Church? He "gave Himself for her", what did Jesus say? "The Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve".
"Children, obey your parents in the Lord"
"Fathers, do not provoke your children"
"Slaves, obey your masters"
"Masters, do the same to them"
This isn't about being "the boss", this is about submitting to each other in love out of reverence to Christ. This isn't about glory, it's about the cross. Stop seeking glory, and seek the cross--learn to die. As the Apostle says in the beginning of the 5th chapter of Ephesians (which is why you really should start reading even before where I began quoting above),
"
Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God." (Ephesians 5:1-2)
