This was not a requirement to marry, rather it was a ruling against the practice of polygamy (ie., they could not have more than one wife). Paul was not married. Was he breaking the rules?

Paul was not a Bishop, was he? Men in the ministry are required to be married. Only heretical sects forbid marriage for their clergy.
