Greetings Matronsgt13! I have posted many times on this issue lately. If would care to read all of them, use the search feature and search for my username 'Morant61' and the following key words 'no' 'god' 'besides' 'other'. But, here is my answer is a nut shell. Isaiah makes is clear, over and over again, there is no other god besides Jehovah. However, Isaiah also makes it clear that there are many things that are 'called' gods. They aren't really, but people worship them anyway. So, in Ex. 20:3, God is simply saying that we are not supposed to worship anyone or anything but Him. Jeremiah has a very funny, but sad passage, where he talks of someone cutting down a tree, using half of it to cook his food and the other half to fashion a god. The idol made was considered a god by the man who fashioned it, but it wasn't actually a god. It was just a chunk of wood. :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Tim, here are the Jeremiah verses (abridged). For the customs of the peoples are delusion; Because it is wood cut from the forest, The work of the hands of a craftsman with a cutting tool... "Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field are they, And they cannot speak; They must be carried, Because they cannot walk! Do not fear them, For they can do no harm, Nor can they do any good."... But they are altogether stupid and foolish In their discipline of delusion--their idol is wood!.. But the LORD is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King... Thus you shall say to them, "The gods that did not make the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from under the heavens." (Jer 10:3-11) Colin |
