Sydney, we don't live in King Solomon's time. Outside of extreme right-wing religious communities, women are no longer possessions. Women are people, autonomous individuals, with the right to employ lawyers and sue for divorce. Donald Trump's first two wives divorced him for sleeping around. What makes you think they'd put up with additional wives? How many potential divorce settlements can a rich man afford to take on?
