That's a great question! Yes The Bible states that God's original purpose was for a man to have one wife and stick with her (1 Timothy 3: 2, Genesis 2: 24, Matthew 19: 4-6). This is why Adam only had Eve. However, God allowed and regulated polygamy so that his people would be able to multiply faster. Jehovah God tolerated this until the time of Jesus Christ and the Christian congregation, and then it was considered unscriptural.
