There isn’t a single commandment sanctioning it. There are ones about not multiplying wives to oneself, though.

Something is not automatically “biblical” by virtue of being mentioned in the Bible. By that logic, people might think that what Jephthah did to his daughter was acceptable to God when it was not.

I was in a rush when I posted. What I should have said was, "at least polygamy is not an abomination"
