I missed the polygamy deal in the 10 commandments - are you using the "Shall not commit adultery" as the basis?
I'm also unclear of where the Bible itself condemns polygamy or calls it a sin - much of it going on among some main players in the Old Covenant and some instructions against it in the New Covenant, but I don't see it called a sin.
Do you have sources/explanations that might help me grasp it?
and I missed the part where God brought Eve and Susie and Mary and Martha and Deborah and a few other women to Adam...
Maybe youre reading the Joseph Smith Testament ???
Here's something...
Moses’ law said, the king “shall not multiply horses to himself… Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold” (Deuteronomy 17:16-17).
It says nothing about lesser mortals.
1 Kings 11:1-3
1 King Solomon, however, loved many foreign women besides Pharaoh’s daughter—Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians and Hittites. 2 They were from nations about which the Lord had told the Israelites, “You must not intermarry with them, because they will surely turn your hearts after their gods.” Nevertheless, Solomon held fast to them in love. 3 He had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines, and his wives led him astray.
Interestingly, Homosexuality was called SIN before the LAW was given.

______________________________________
the main players as you call them were just normal men and women... they sinned
David committed adultery and murder...
but God did not excuse him just because he was a “main player”
Been mentioned in the Bible did not give any of them a pass when they sinned...
Not David, not Moses, not any of the kings, not Peter..
