But it was not this way from the beginning
Seems that there is more anthropological evidence for polyandry out there than has been typically noted, even beyond what is in Sex at Dawn
8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. 9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.”
10 The disciples said to him, “If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry.”
The heading of OD 2 is excellent
11 Jesus replied, “Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given. 12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others-and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.”
Matthew -e day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him with a question. 24 “Teacher,” they said, “Moses told us that if a man dies without having children, his brother must marry the widow and raise up offspring for him. 25 Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one married and died, and since he had no children, he left his wife to his brother. 26 The same thing happened to the second and third brother, right on down to the seventh. 27 Finally, the woman died. 28 Now then, at the resurrection, whose wife will she be of the seven, since all of them were married to her?” 29 Jesus replied, “You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. 30 At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. 31 But about the resurrection of the dead-have you not read what God said to you, 32 ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'[b]? He is not the God of the dead but of the living.”
GEMTAM Chapter 3: Multihusband-multiwife. In fact — if you’d like, just read that chapter and you can then reply to the expositions of the scriptures that it contains here at this post.
That’s kinda the reason the authors have put the GEMTAM together — to just point to the book rather than replying in detail to each-and-every objection.
A California-based Singaporean is one of two amateur astronomers credited with finding an extraordinary new planet that has four suns.
Former President’s Scholar Jek Kian Jin, 53, along with an American, helped professionals from United States space agency Nasa and Yale University discover PH1, the first-known planet to be orbitally linked to four suns. The other amateur is Mr Robert Gagliano, an oncologist based in Arizona.

The heading of section 132 has been changed slightly. Also OD 1 and OD 2 have now been given headings.
The rewording of section 132’s heading is more accurate, doctrinally. The first sentence of OD 1’s new heading is false doctrine. Two out of three ain’t too bad, right?
“And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel..”
According to one source, that is the exact same phrase Joseph used upon meeting Newel K Whitney for the first time…
“In February 1831 the Prophet Joseph Smith entered Newel K. Whitney’s store in Kirtland, Ohio, and exclaimed to the startled proprietor, “Thou art the man!” Newel protested that he did not know this stranger, then heard life-changing words: “I am Joseph the Prophet. You prayed me here; now what do you want of me?”
