“gen 25::6
But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country.”
Are you arguing that polygamy is sanctioned by God? Rather, it was one of those things that God permitted for the hardness of their hearts, but in the beginning it was not so.
Mat 19:4-9 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, (5) And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? (6) Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. (7) They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? (8) He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. (9) And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
The issue at hand here is specifically on adultery, but notice that if you put away your wife, and MARRY another, you are committing adultery. If polygamy was of God, that person would simply have two wives. But this is denied. He is an adulterer.

AS far as polygamy being sanctioned by God i do not claim to know and really do not care either way.
