Origin

Middle English: from Old French obeir, from Latin oboedire, from ob- 'in the direction of' + audire 'hear'.

Latin oboedire ‘pay attention to’ is based on audire ‘to hear’ (see audience). In the traditional Church of England wedding vows the husband promised ‘to love and cherish’ his wife ‘till death us do part’, while the wife promised to ‘love, cherish, and obey’ her husband. She who must be obeyed, was the title of the beautiful sorceress Ayesha in the adventure story She (1887) by Sir H. Rider Haggard, although many now know it better from Sir John Mortimer's television series and books about Rumpole of the Bailey, where Rumpole uses it to refer to his wife.
