The Church has not taken the position
that Jesus Christ has plural wives. It is true that one of the early elders of
the Church so advocated it but the Church itself has never made any such
statement. (Melvin J. Ballard, Letter to Eslie D. Jenson, August 14, 1934, repr.
The
Star of Truth 3, no. 7 [July 1955]: 216)
