What do you think God meant when he included the commandment to have no other Gods before him? After all, why would you need another God? Unfortunately, at the time, the Hebrews had handmade deities that they worshipped instead of God. So, therefore, in Exodus 20:4-5, we find "You shall not make any idols ... you must never bow to an image or worship it in any way." Like humans often do, some obeyed, and some didn’t, keeping their manmade idols. Do you idolize anything or anyone—putting it/them before God?
