Monogamy started 'in the beginning', with Adam and Eve, when God himself said:"For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh. "(Genesis 2:24NASB)

Multiple wives were allowed for a time, but monogamy was God's original standard, and was re-stated as such, by Jesus.(Matthew 19:4-6)
