I do not see how you can say in one breath that certainly something violates scripture, and is prohibited; and in the next breath say you cannot call it sin?

I agree... originally, God made man w/one wife and that is his model... including the NT which is also modeled wChrist/church.
I believe that God allowed the many wives of David and others, it was culture of heathen nations rubbing off, but not God's intended plan or desire at all. He allowed divorces in OT, but that was not his desire from the beginning either. Lots of distorted view points passed down through generations... but I think just going back to the beginning shows us God's plan.
