Was Polygamy Taught in the Scriptures?

February 02, 2022

Part 4 of an interview with Ryan Hinckley (host of the “Mormon Theories” podcast) exploring the scriptural accounts of polygamy and monogamy as taught by a divine source. Do the scriptures justify the claim that God commanded polygamy? When in history did he ever do that? We explore in depth the questionable interpretation found in Jacob 2:30, on whether or not there’s validity to the claim that God would command polygamy to “raise up seed.”
