Re: Was Abraham's Relationship W/Hagar Adulterous?
I have only read the first few pages of this thead but it was amusing to see some try to apply our sensibilities to a different time and culture.
Having multiple wives and concubines was a matter of course in the Old Testament days and did not represent "sin". As others pointed out Jacob, Gideon, and other great men all had them.
To our Western, modern mindset it is inconceivable. Although it does sound like it could be fun it also sounds very expensive and nerve wracking! Just look at the cat fighting between Sarah and Hagar!!!
