SUMMARY:
In a world where monogamy is collapsing and dating culture is defined by chaos, Sir Abraham JF Kilian’s provocative new article, “She’d Rather Share a King Than Keep a Knave,” calls for clarity, courage, and covenant. The article argues that modern female hypergamy—women seeking men of equal or higher status—is quietly engineering a return to polygyny, not by law, but by relational default. Elite men are increasingly “shared,” while millions of faithful, high-achieving women remain unmarried, waiting for covenant-ready men who never arrive.
With wit, depth, and biblical fidelity, Kilian exposes the unintended consequences of a monogamy-only culture that has ignored Scripture, distorted church teaching, and failed to disciple men and women into mature, covenantal purpose. He draws from sociological data, evolutionary psychology, prophetic Scripture, and personal testimony to defend polygyny—not as indulgence, but as a structured, sanctified response to demographic asymmetry and relational entropy.
Each section builds the case: from the “mating market” imbalance and the Church’s silent complicity, to the prophetic imagery of YHWH as a plural husband, to the flourishing of women within righteous polygynous households. It calls on men to lead with mantle, not lust, and challenges women to reclaim their value in covenant—not control. Church leaders are urged to stop policing what God permits and start discipling what the Bible actually teaches.
This is not just a defense of polygyny. It is a clarion call to restore Bbiblical marriage from the ruins of Western romanticism and cultural compromise.
