You just did. Anyway, why did all the heroes of the Bible have multiple wives then? Why is Monogamy a very new concept when weighed against the rest of history? Why are humans the only species on the planet that suddenly decided to be monogamous? Why do men have an inherent desire to spread their seed into every hole? Why do women crave to be plowed by multiple men? Why can't you give your own explanation instead of copping out with "muh Bible" and "priest who touched me"?
I can't say why God allowed it in the OT, very few had multiple wives that I am aware of. In the NT we are told the husband of one wife (22 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. Ephesians 5:22-23) in the OT when we see the creation of Adam and Eve it says "Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh." Gen 2:24 I can only say this is a human issue of sin and corruption, we were not created to have multiple partners, you see the problems caused with Abraham Sarah and Hagar (she wasn't even his wife but a slave of Sarah), you see King Solomon who had all the wisdom of God and still he was led astray to worship the idols by trying to please his many many many wives. Also I am not sure where you get "priest who touched me" from?
