There has always been an argument about various religions and multiple wives. One of the stagnating challenges is that if we read the bible starting with the Old testament God made it clear that man should only marry one wife within a monogamous relationship.
Did You Know... Protoevangelium of James
(also called the Infancy Gospel of James)
Written around:
AD 145–170
This book identifies:

- Mary’s mother as Anne (Anna)

The Protoevangelium of James is an early Christian apocryphal gospel, probably composed in the mid-second century CE. It expands on the birth and upbringing of the Virgin Mary and the infancy of Jesus, seeking to affirm Mary’s perpetual virginity and divine election. Though not part of the canonical New Testament, it strongly influenced later Christian traditions about Mary’s life.
