1 Timothy 3:2 states, "A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach"
Does a bishop require one wife at a minimum (i.e. does he have to be married) ? Does a bishop need to be currently married to his one wife (i.e. no divorced bishops) ? If a bishop divorces his first wife, and marries a second one, is he still disqualified? Does this disqualify a man with two or more current wives from becoming a bishop?
