The close of the commandment are at the heart of the 10 commandments. If we have the one True God, why would we pursue other gods? Why would they follow such gods when the True God not only led you out of Egypt, redeemed you, but He is a jealous God that has all power. Jealousy can also be translated as zealous. God has a desire to be with His people and does not look kindly on His children desiring something other than Him for salvation, comfort, and life. Repent and find love in all the right places: God’s love found in Christ alone! Lord have mercy.
