If there's only one God , why is it mentioned that this God is "jealous" and "there shall be no other Gods before me ? I believe it's in Exodus and maybe Genesis too.
Why doesn't God simply say there are no other Gods?

there was no Gideon Bible then. Even in Hebrew Strong's Hebrew: 430. אֱלֹהִים (elohim) -- God, god. 'God' is generic then YHVH Elohim is specific.If that were God, he would call bull**** on all other claims period.

Anyone agreed on translation ? Except literal level, old sages say it has other 48 levels of understanding. It was written by initiated for initiated or about to be initiated.So the writings in Exodus are misleading and incorrect?

Because there are others called gods. (Psalm 82:6) They just aren't the only True God. They are His children. But some of God's children have set themselves up as to be worshiped as the gods of the nations. They're called archons or princes. This means they will be destroyed by the most High God when the time comes. And God Himself will inherit all nations.If there's only one God , why is it mentioned that this God is "jealous" and "there shall be no other Gods before me ?

What is this strata? Which book of the Bible? Because that's clearly wrong. From Genesis on it's Yah (The tetragrammaton). And even in the book of Job(considered the oldest by many) it is Yah.The oldest strata of the Jewish Bible say that El Elyon - the Most High - was the original God.
It also says that Yahweh was an angel - one of "the sons of God" - to whom El Elyon, when he was distributing nations to his angels - gave Israel to Yahweh as his portion.
So El Elyon was the first high God, with Yahweh replacing him over a long stretch of years.
It's the same thing when a man is jealous over his wife. Look at the story of Odysseus in the Odyssey. He returns after years and finds a group of so called suitors "courting" his wife. This causes their death. So when God returns for His bride He will destroy the ones who have tried to seduce her and who have destroyed the earth.If there's only one God , why is it mentioned that this God is "jealous" and "there shall be no other Gods before me ?
