class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>God never forbade or condemned polygamy at any point in Scripture.<\/li><li>Numerous OT Patriarchs took more than one wife and their actions were never condemned.<\/li><li>God made provision for polygamy in the Mosaic Law.<\/li><li>The Levirite provision of the Law requires a man to marry his brother\u2019s widow for the purpose of raising up children in his brother\u2019s name. No exception is made for a brother who is already married.<\/li><li>Numerous Kings in Israel practiced polygamy and their actions were never condemned.<\/li><li>Solomon is criticized for letting his wives turn his heart aside from following the Lord God, but he is not criticized for having multiple wives.<\/li><li>David is criticized for his sin in taking Uriah\u2019s wife and having him put to death. Scripture says that David\u2019s heart was perfect before God except in the matter of Uriah the Hittite. If that is the only failure God cites, how can David\u2019s polygamy be labeled as sinful?<\/li><li>God promoted polygamy by giving Saul\u2019s wives into David \u201cbosom.\u201d<\/li><li>God modeled polygamy, at least in figure, by describing Himself as married to the two sisters, Israel and Judah. God also later represents Himself as divorced from them.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>I am not in favor of polygamy. I do not think it is a good idea. At 65-years-old, as an elder, it does not apply to me anyway. I cannot conceive any circumstances under which I would join a man to a second wife. Yet, I am committed to the faithful handling of God\u2019s Word, even when the issues and conclusions are culturally and personally difficult.
