EVALUATING WESTERN CHRISTIANITY’S INTERPRETATION OF BIBLICAL POLYGAMY by - Lauren Heiligenthal
This book
demonstrates that the popular Western worldview regarding marriage
affects biblical interpretation. While most Western societies uphold
monogamy as God's ideal form of marriage, a number of other cultures
practice polygamy. Western Christianity often perceives polygamy as
a threat to the monogamist ideal; therefore, this book evaluates
whether the Bible clearly advocates that polygamous men should
become monogamous through divorce.
