a lot of Patriarchs had numerous wives and concubines and God had no problem with it.

Remember what Jesus said about that.

Plus, in OT times they were still busy populating an under-populated earth. So God was a little more patient with them.

Umm, we’re under grace now. I think if He’s more patient with anyone, it’s us, not them.

Are we now an overpopulated earth? Do you believe everything the left wing tells you?

God's patience is best seen with peoples who rebel against him.

He is long-suffering toward the evil but justice eventually happens.

Those under grace are in a different camp. They are washed clean and accepted fully as true children.
