and that’s the best you can do? a passage referring to serial monogamy? He said “you have HAD five husbands”.. the woman had been married multiple times.. not to multiple men at once.. I love people who take things out of context..
It was the Romans who put an end to polygyny in order to control the people.. do your homework next time.

What’s the difference between serial monogamy and having a different wife for each night of the week?

Only the time horizon of the infidelity.

Care to explain:
a) how allowing most men to marry consitutes “controlling” them or
b) just how the Romans achieved this triumph?
