I have heard it gets more easier with more children, ie... 2 children are easier than one, three children than two, etc........
Does same works with wives?
If it gets harder with more wives, are you doing something wrong?
An excellent and piercing question, brother, and one that reveals a mind trained toward order, not chaos.
Yes, in many cases, the principle holds: when a household is properly structured under godly headship, more children bring rhythm, cooperation, and purpose, not disorder. Likewise, when a man leads with clarity, justice, and unwavering love, more wives can result in greater strength, peace, and productivity, not conflict.
If adding wives brings only strife, confusion, or exhaustion, it is not polygyny that has failed, but the submission of the wives, leadership, structure, or spiritual discipline. A man must first rule himself, then his first house, before extending that rule further. A king who cannot govern a village will not prosper with a city.
The wise patriarch understands that every additional wife is a covenant, a soul, a household builder, and he must provide spiritual, emotional, and material covering to each. But when done righteously, the result is not burden, it is blessing. Not noise, but harmony. Not depletion, but dominion.
More wives, like more children, can multiply peace, when they are submissive, and the man multiplies his faithfulness.
The time has come to restore the Great Order that God intended!
