“Polygamy” is an awkward term: having a term that means both multiple wives and multiple “husbands” is like having a term that means multiple children with one father and at the same time means one child with multiple “fathers”.
The blessings and curses of Torah are guaranteed to Israel, but the curses are temporary. #israel will repent. She will return to #torah. No matter how badly Israel has strayed from God's instructions, she will be restored. The partial return of the Jews from Babylon was not a fulfillment of that promise. They weren't ready yet and so God sent them back into exile. There is another, much greater restoration still to come.

I need prayers for my situation with a bad client of mine.

Thought for Today: Sunday September 18:
Don’t be so hard on yourself. YHVH can bring good even out of your mistakes. Your finite mind tends to look backwards, longing to undo decisions you have come to regret. This is a waste of time and energy, leading only to frustration. Instead of floundering in the past, release your mistakes to Elohiym. Look to Him in trust, anticipating that His Infinite Creativity can weave both good choices and bad into a lovely design. Because you are human, you will continue to make mistakes. Thinking that you should live an error-free life is symptomatic of pride. Your failures can be a source of blessing, humbling you and giving you empathy for other people in their weakness. Best of all, failure highlights your dependence on YHVH. He is able to bring beauty out of the morass of your mistakes. Trust in YHVH and watch to see what He will do.
