Bible Question (short): did def. of marriage change over time? |
Question (full): I'm having a hard time understanding how God could sanction polygamy in the bible. I'm referring to David, Solomon etc. Did the idea of marriage between one woman and one man change over time? According to the biblical definition of marriage, was not David an adulterer since he had multiple wives? Are there any verses in the bible that condone or condemn polygamy? |
