Polygamy was tolerated until the time of the Christian congregation.
(1 Timothy 3:2) The overseer should therefore be irreprehensible, a husband of one wife, moderate in habits, sound in mind, orderly, hospitable, qualified to teach.
(Titus 1:5-6) For this reason I left you in Crete, that you might correct the things that were defective and might make appointments of older men in city after city, as I gave you orders; 6 if there is any man free from accusation, a husband of onewife, having believing children that were not under a charge of debauchery nor unruly.
