How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 12:05pm On Apr 20 |
David had already been married to at least seven known-named wives. (1 Samuel 18:27, 25:42-43, 2 Samuel 3:2-5.) Then God gave him Saul's wives after Saul "And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things." 2 Samuel 12:8. So how many wives did David have in total? Is God for or against Polygamy? If Polygamy is right for David how is it bad for others? "Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite. "1 Kings 15:5. HISSCRIBE1995 1 Like 1 Share |

AbuTwins:Ignorance is not bliss! 14 “You will enter the land that the Lord your God is giving you. You will take that land and live in it. Then you will say, ‘We will put a king over us, like all the nations around us.’Right there in the Law of Moses, the Constitutional Law in the Nation of Israel(and Judah) that existed until almost 1900 years ago, it is stated that the King of Israel was allowed to have many wives but not too many of them. |

AbuTwins:. Polygamy is not a sin but it is not the original plan of God for marriage. God allowed some certain things till the messiah would be reveal and lead the Israelites to the perfect will of God. |

Kobojunkie:Who is ignorant? The Biblical God that contradicted Himself or you that brought ignorance up? God made a law that the king must not have too many wives Also, the king must not have too many wives, because that will make him turn away from the Lord. And he must not make himself rich with silver and gold. - Deuteronomy 17 vs 14 - 17 Then God gave King David Saul's wives after Saul "And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things." 2 Samuel 12:8. If Polygamy is right for King David then the verse above is either a contradiction or simply false! "Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite. "1 Kings 15:5. Right there in the Law of Moses, the Constitutional Law in the Nation of Israel(and Judah) that existed until almost 1900 years ago, it is stated that the King of Israel was allowed to have many wives but not too many of them. How much is "many" and how much is "not to many"? |

helinues: David had 7 wives and God still gave him the wives of Saul.... |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 10:41pm On Apr 21 |
Steep: 1. So God made a mistake deviating from His original plan! 2. What verses can we find all these theories VERBATIM as you stated it brilliantly? |

Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by Kobojunkie: 10:42pm On Apr 21 |
AbuTwins:You seem to be struggling with the meaning of the word Contradiction Where exactly is this contradiction you claim? Let me guess, you know nothing of the story of David and Uriah, do you? Or is this a desperate attempt to make a point where there is none to make or something? |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 10:44pm On Apr 21 |
Kobojunkie: The story is not our business here! The contradiction is your claim that God gave a law that Kings can have many wives but not too many! Then David with 7 God still gave him many more! |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by Kobojunkie: 10:49pm On Apr 21 |
AbuTwins:You are not making any sense. con·tra·dic·tionIf a king is allowed many wives but not too many and God gives him many wives, where is the contradiction? How were you able to determine that after God gave David many wives, David now had too many? |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 11:03pm On Apr 21 |
Kobojunkie: He already had many! God made it too many! |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by Kobojunkie: 11:08pm On Apr 21 |
AbuTwins:How did you reach this conclusion that God made it too many? |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by Antiislaam(m): 11:09pm On Apr 21 |
AbuTwins Ask your Chief imam the reason why sugar daddy messenger Muhammad had over 10 wives against the commandment of allah that compulsory maximum of 4 wives for you slaves |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 11:58pm On Apr 21 |
Antiislaam: The reason is because Allah permitted him! Just like David the ancestor of your God Jesus! Ask your Daddy GO that God drank his tea how many virgin was shared to God in Numbers 31:40! |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 12:00am On Apr 22 |
Kobojunkie: David had many wives! Saul had many wives! David acquired Saul's wives! David got too many wives! |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by Kobojunkie: 12:22am On Apr 22 |
AbuTwins:Many + Many can also equal Many. So, how did you ascertain that in this case MANY + MANY = TOO MANY? How did you come to conclude that David's count was TOO MANY? |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by Petalss: 3:27am On Apr 22 |
Kobojunkie: Lol. I guess MANY + MANY = TWO MANY 2 Likes |

AbuTwins: So you mean allah permitted Muhammed to had sugar mummy Khadijat and Sugar girl Aishat right? allah is good at permitting nonsense Now ask your alfas in Ilorin including Mr sulu Gambari that why can't allah permitted you to have sugar mummy like Khadijat and sugar girl like Aishat as wives as seen in the life of pedophile messenger Muhammad? |

You need to understand certain expressions! God said He gave David doesn't literally mean He brought them to David as wives the same way He brought Eve to Adam it simply means a permission for David to please himself with as many women (wives) as he wish. It's like saying God gave someone lots of money it doesn't mean God brought cash to the person at home but permission to have up to any amount he or she wants. So when David heard that he knew he wasn't doing the right thing. WHY? For God to have uttered that statement means it's not David's right to do so but he was only permitted as long as the Messiah who will set matters straight hasn't come! Deuteronomy 18:18-19 After Jesus whoever chooses to multiply wives for himself is not planning to live in Paradise the original purpose of God in the beginning where only a man and a woman were allowed in marriage which was to last forever! Matthew 19:4-5 |

Kobojunkie:Solomon had too many wives. |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 9:04am On Apr 22 |
Antiislaam: If your eldest sister or Mum or Mummy GO proposes to me and she satisfies what I want in a woman of course I will marry her! Just as your God permitted nonsense for David and Solomon! And your God took 32 virgins Himself in Numbers 31:40 |

AbuTwins: @ AbuTwins I want you to respond to this comment: You said ~ from Ismael came only Muhammed as the only Arab Prophet! All nations had Prophets! If Muhammed is the only prophet that came from Ishmael and all nations (including Nigeria) had prophets then: Why must you have to worship through what a Saudi Arabian prophet said? Why not one from your own place? Those Arabs brainwashed people with lies that God is for all nations and that it's not only the Israelites that are God's people yet they brought their own prophet and book to you so that you can worship in the name of their prophet, using what they wrote in their book, using their language to worship, calling God in their language and to worsen the matter you must bow towards the black stone in Mecca their own country! Is that not the height of deception? If they claim that God is not only for Israelites then each and everyone must worship in the name of a prophet from their geographical locations not the God of Israel or Saudi! |

AbuTwins: Of his own, God did not give him any of the 6, He took them on their own as a theif taketh what was not given him. It was only Micah who God gave him so that he could be in position to take the Throne. |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by Antilslaam: 4:27pm On May 01 |
AbuTwins: Ask Muhammad in grave why he disobeyed the idol (allah) he forced on you slaves after his idol compulsory and mandated maximum of FOUR WIVES for you slaves as he married over TEN WIVES without counting numerous concubines at his disposal |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 9:31am On May 02 |
StillDtruth: Quote the verses? |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by StillDtruth: 10:02am On May 02 |
AbuTwins: You read it when you raised the thread. |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 10:22am On May 02 |
StillDtruth: Did you read this? If Polygamy is right for David how is it bad for others? "Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite. "1 Kings 15:5. |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by StillDtruth: 10:32am On May 02 |
AbuTwins: Did you not see all the threads i have raised showing and proving that even David was condemned for his polygamy? Eg 9) Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife if God had truly given david wives why then is God accusing him of taking someone's wife? |
Re: How Many Wives Did God Give David When He Already Had 7 Wives? by AbuTwins: 10:56am On May 02 |
StillDtruth: God only accused him of Uriah and his wife. What about the others? The accusation is for murder, adultery and covetousness! There's no proof it is for Polygamy as you claimed! Then God gave David Saul's wives after Saul "And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives (plural) into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things." 2 Samuel 12:8. |
