Polygamy in Utah

The Bible makes it plain that there were times when the Almighty commanded His people to live in polygamy. When Joseph Smith inquired of the Lord as to how that could be just, he was given a revelation now known as D&C 132. As a result, the Latter-day Saints began to practice plural marriage. The principle was introduced in Nauvoo and was lived more openly during the Exodus. In 1852 it was announced to the world. This episode of History of the Saints answers various questions about life in plural marriage in early Utah.
