Bible Note: justme - Even if the guy who is dreaming about having a house full of wives has no moral scruples, he should at least count the economic cost! For example, my wife has (I'd guess) 50 pairs of shoes. If I had 10 wives, that's 500 pairs of shoes to buy. And that's only the beginning. Imagine having to buy 10 wedding anniversary gifts, 10 birthday gifts, 10 Christmas gifts. And with 10 wives, surely 30 children and 90 grand-children will eventually crop up. And a house large enough to accomodate all those wives and children -- well, there goes at least a million bucks. King Solomon apparently was able to get by o.k. financially, but not all of us are as well heeled as old King Sol. The guy who dreams of multiple wives is not only a moral degenerate, but he is living on Fantasy Island as well :-) --Hank |
