What does the Bible say about concubinage your wife is impotent and is now invalid and can no longer engaged in sex and you live in a culture were concubinage is tolerated?
OpinionMy search in the Bible of the word concubines netted the following Information.According to the Bible, Abraham have concubines; Genesis 25:6, 2 Chronicles 1:32.King David also have concubines; 2 Samuel 5:13.King Solomon have 300 concubines 1Kings 11:1-3.There are many more characters in the Bible that have concubines, but the above 3 characters were the most prominent. So I guess if your wife cannot perform her wifely duty and the place you are now staying does not condemn it, then surely it's OK for you to practice Concubinage as well.AnswerRegarding what the Bible says on this topic, we need to bring into account the whole of Scripture's instruction on the matter. It was not God's will for multiple marriages (polygamy), having concubines, being merely a secondary or inferior wife, outside of legal marriage. Jesus said: "From the beginning it (marriage to another) was not so." Matthew 19:8. It amounts to adultery. The incidents in the Old Testament of Abraham, David & others does not even reflect God's will then. In Deuteronomy 17:17, it states: "Neither shall he multiply wives unto himself, that his heart turn not away," specifically being instructions for a king, which David did not follow. Solomon particularly failed at this point.The standard for leadership in the New Testament church was the requirement of being "the husband of one wife." 1 Timothy 3:2. The honoring of the marriage partner should indeed be: "For better or for worse, till death do us part."
