11 Bible Commentaries on Deuteronomy 21: 15
Tiuche (Post #9): My posted commentary #2 is accurate and consistent with the Word of God. All verses must be interpreted in light of what was happening historically at the time the text was written.
Side Note: Why you as a professed Christian would promote a polygamy agenda (illegal in your country) and marriage to under-aged little girls when they reach puberty (as early as 7 to 8 years of age, but generally between 10-14 years)–also illegal in your country–is beyond my comprehension. Governments and agencies around the world seek to protect children from child abuse, child predators and child trafficking. Every country imposes minimum marriage age requirements for those reasons.

Roland G. You ARE GLOSSING OVER WHAT IS PLAIN IN THE VERY VERSE WE ARE COMMENTING DEUTERONOMY 21:15TO FAVOR YOUR SHOULD BE MONOGAMY FOR ALL men!
You know Roland I am like the policeman and you are like the Bushman in the movie The Gods must be Crazy! It is hard to explain to you, for no matter how I try you cannot understand…just ignoring my words like those words are nonsense but I wonder why you act like the Rhino in that movie….every time I start a fiery plant…there you come try stamping it out with your foolish feet which you think is shod for the Gospel!
Why won’t you try making your own plot and planting what you want in there and try not to intervene in my work or the work of others for the Gospel! to their master they fall or are uplifted
Frankly You are annoying and I think you want to play dumb! I said you should talk with angel probably you will understand each other better, I can’t reach your level…you want to see how angel and you would talk with each other?
Cute but ….here visit this site:

Tiuche (Post #7): God made Adam and Eve. God did not make Adam, Eve, and Betty. Polygamists fantasize about what God should have done.

Roland G. YOUR HYPOCRISY IS SHOWING! Or is it your babe mind? Or light you be a false brother?
The fact that you keep on saying that God ordained pattern for marriage is; ONE MAN & ONE WOMAN- while glossing over Deuteronomy 21:15 is a sign of BIAS INTERPRETATION OF SCRIPTURES!
You are not after the TRUTH in this matter but to follow your wayward MOTHER and her loverS the BEAST & HIS IMAGES! Just take care that the seal in your forehead is indeed THE SPIRIT OF GOD…it might be the seal of your HOLY MOTHER & HER LOVERS!
Leave me alone little brother-coz it just boils down between two things: EITHER I AM A FALSE PROPHET or I AM OF GOD!
If I am a false prophet…there is no cause for worry since the majority of people would still believe what is popular in the world and not my preaching that POLYGAMY IS NOT A SIN!
But if I am of God, THEN YOU WILL BE FOUND OPPOSING THE TRUTH OF GOD!
Think! If you still continue your stalking of every post I make, your true character and nature will be revealed in the end …still hoping you are of God!

Tiuche (Post #5): “If God Made Two Wives For Adam…”
God knows what is good for man. It was not good that Adam,or anyone for that matter, should have two or more wives. He ordained a different pattern: one man and one woman.

Love Poems & More: Marriage - Adam’s Gift

If God Made Two Wives For Adam
If God Made Two Wives For Adam
Then pious men would say;
“Upon two wives each Christian man
Must certainly lay claim!”
Now if a Christian man
Would take himself but one,
They’d charge him with monogamy
And soon he would be hung.
Dare he take more than two, such shame
For Adam took but twain.
They’d hang him high upon a tree
‘For two made He, not three.’
If God made two wives for Adam
Then Christians would make war
On heathens who dared take just one.
“Two wives!” the cry, “Not less! Not more!”
So God in his great wisdom tells
Of just one wife for Adam.
If more there were, kept secret still
Lest men misread God’s perfect will
What helpmeet could God have created
To prove some men be unequally mated?
Should He have made a fraction more
Yea, 1.1 or 1.4?
Nay, He created one
No precedent to set
And if today one’s not enough
There’s plenty more than that.
So finally, I am left to ask,
If you cannot read minds,
How do you know our Lord’s intent
Of God - Creator of mankind?

A PROFESSOR SAY POLYGAMY CAUSES HARM TO CHILDREN & WOMEN, does he know what he is talking about? Is he a christian? Does he believe the Bible?Many are debating whether polygamy is a sin or not. but do these people really know their Bible? So many voices to listen to, but there is one sole voice of truth we should listen to and that is God & He hath given to us His Word. Here is an excerpt on the debate: (source: http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2011/11/21/scott-stinson-bountiful-case-could-bring-polygamy-debate-to-parliament/
“I don’t want to say the issue is easy, on the contrary it’s very complex and vexing,” says Nick Bala, a law professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ont. “There are legitimate questions about freedom of religion, but if you look at the body of evidence there are serious concerns about harm caused to women and children in polygamous relationships. It is an inherently unequal relationship.”
Prof. Bala offers that although the B.C. court heard from people who said they were happy in polygamous marriages and that they weren’t coerced into such an arrangement at a young age, he says on balance such marriages have more incidence of abuse than traditional marriages.
“Of course it’s not true of every single polygamous family that there’s been coercion, but this is about patterns of behaviour,” he says. “The fact that someone can drive safe at 150 km/h doesn’t mean you can’t have a law against it.”
But Bev Baines, also a law professor at Queen’s and one of the authors of a 2005 study commissioned by the federal government that said the law against polygamy was unconstitutional, says decriminalization is “the only possible solution for women.”
Women in polygamous marriages might be in need of help, she argues, but the law as it stands makes criminals out of all parties in such a relationship — Section 293 of the Criminal Code prohibits “any kind of conjugal union with more than one person at the same time” — and thus makes criminals out of would-be victims. Trying to rewrite the law to target only the males, though, would break Charter requirements for gender neutrality.
And, she notes, since the polygamy law hasn’t been prosecuted in decades, “What’s the point?” There are laws against abuse, for example, so couldn’t the government just enforce those? And provide aid to those in need?
Eventually, it’s a debate that could well end up in the hands of our Parliamentarians, who haven’t minded a bit as this issue has churned its way through our courts. When forced to weigh in on controversial social issues, our MPs most often speak in vague generalities and then slip out the side door when we’re still trying to figure out what they’re talking about. In this case, they would have the unenviable option of trying to redraft a law to suit a host of competing Charter rights. Or they could break the emergency glass around the notwithstanding clause.
Prof. Bala, for one, says that if this particular law is struck down, then Parliament needs to step up.
“I think the criminal law anchors our social policy and immigration law,” he says. Decriminalization, he argues, would have serious impacts.
One suspects the Harper government, which likes to add to the Criminal Code, not remove things from it, is inclined to agree

Here are the Biblical men who have two wives and they did not sin against God:
1. Moses had two wives;
2. Abraham have three wives;
3. David have more than eighteen wives;
4. Solomon had one thousand wives;
5. Caleb have two wives’;
6. Jacob have four wives;
7. Elkanah father of prophet Samuel have two wives….
And many other Godly men have several wives…
If having more than one wife is a sin against God, why would God state His Laws on plural marriage…why won’t He just state YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE MORE THAN ONE WIFE?
By your position i am telling you that you are opposing the Word of God for what is plainly recognizable….the Big Big Lie of Monogamy had engulfed almost all the world…would you please visit the web news on polygamy so you can see what is happening outside your community….a lot of men and women had suffered from the doctrine of polygamy…i beseech you as a brother in Christ…for our Lord Jesus sake…

“If a man has two wives” does not mean a man has two wives at the same time. The phrase refers to a man having a new wife and one “ex” wife. This verse is about property rights of firstborn children, whether of the new wife or of the “ex” wife. (Deut. 21:15).

IF A MAN HAVE TWO WIVES WHAT DOES GOD SAY HE SHALL DO?
If a man have two wives, I asked a pastor, what should he do?
He shall leave his 2nd wife (mistress) have no more sex with her, but support their children, answered the Pastor.
But God seem to say otherwise in the Bible, I asked!
Where in the bible? He asked.
Deuteronomy 21:15, I said.
Oh though I am not familiar with that, that Law had been superseded by His Law on the New Testament. It is obsolete! The pastor answered!
Does God Laws change? Does God Laws become obsolete? For the Law is Holy and Spiritual, the scripture says…the Law was made that we might know right from wrong…and the New Testament is founded on the Old Testament…Think not that Christ came to destroy the Law or the Prophet…but to fulfill…to make it honourable…to seal it among His Disciples…
People who are ignorant of the whole Bible do always twist the scriptures wrecking havoc on themselves and those who follow them…blind leaders of the blind….even persecuting those who would live according to God’s commands….wonder why the pastor said that such law above is obsolete while the tithe is not?

Roland G. Are you playing dumb? I doubt if you really are a believer of the Bible.I REPEAT WHAT I SAID : You ARE GLOSSING OVER WHAT IS PLAIN IN THE VERY VERSE WE ARE COMMENTING DEUTERONOMY 21:15 TO FAVOR YOUR SHOULD BE MONOGAMY FOR ALL men”… the doctrine of devils!
Will you please address that comment! As you always said focus on the text my friend-focus on the text-but you are HOCUS POCUSING this verse & that comment!
Are you an alien that could not understand English? Is an alien and a devil the same? Are you a wolf in disguise as a lamb? If you gloss over all that I speak to you and even what the verse is telling us, you are indeed an alien. Our CONversation is useless!
And one more thing YOU ARE A GREAT FAN of worldly government and in awe of those man made systems, do you what that means?
If you gloss over those questions which my purpose is to bring your darkened mind captive towards the TRUTH, then you are indeed an Alien….and no amount of right Words could convince you that you are simple! But I believe you are not simple instead like Charles you are just playing BLIND MAN BLUFF- you are playing DUMB when you can understand plainly what is being said!
