Come Follow Me is discussing Doctrine and Covenants 129-132 this week. Many people who read the Old Testament wonder about Abraham, Jacob, Moses, and others marrying multiple wives. Marriage between one man and one woman is God’s standard of marriage (see the section heading to Official Declaration 1; Jacob 2:27, 30). However, there have been times when God has commanded His children to practice plural marriage. They did not use the phrase "many wives and concubines"; instead they used "multiple wives". Why not portray it like it's recorded in D&C? Was it meant to de-emphasize one of its main purposes - to have much seed?
