“There’s biblical sanction for polygamy.”
Please provide Scriptural references for this claim.
I can think of many examples where this situation is noted and several others where it is condemned, but never ‘sanctioned.’
And no, neither Michal or Abigail were a ‘reward.’
“There’s biblical sanction for polygamy.”
As far as we can tell, the Bible is fairly accurate on the details of the descriptions of the ‘people’ of the time.
Polygamy wasn’t the only questionable activity being practiced.
Christianity did not exist, at the time. The stories had to be written, before they could be collected and turned into a Bible. So, How could the principles in Christianity be applied to descriptions of what was accept or die behavior , way back then?
