There's a lot in the Bible about love and marriage. The Old Testament book Song of Songs is essentially one long love poem, for example, while the New Testament's Galatians instructs husbands to love their wives to the point of death.

What's interesting is how much of the discussion of marriage in the Good Book is in the context of polygamy. Many of the most important figures in the Old Testament — Jacob, David and Solomon to name a few — had multiple wives. And though monogamous marriages were more commonly discussed in the New Testament, polygamy was still widely a part of the culture. So while polygamy is widely frowned upon today, we have to ask: What does the Bible actually say about polygamy?
