For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,

Wow what a good entity that is totally deserving of my worship.

Nothing says divinity better than petty human emotions like jealousy, and open threats to my unborn children and grandchildren.

The God of the Bible is literally a Monster.

Because the bible is not the word of "god" its just the word os Kings and Popes, very real and not divine men

That's actually pretty much in-line with how a lot of gods were portrayed back then. Have you read any Greek mythology? The gods were assholes there, too.

Yeah, there isn't much originality in Christianity. Besides the point, really.

How many billions of people in 2026 are Hellenistic? Like actually, earnestly, believe in Greek mythology?

What percent of politicians in the US worship Greek gods and use their teachings to inform policy?

Also jealousy is illegal according to the the Christian Constitution.

[–] beanburger@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The word isn't jealous though it is qana' (קנא) which is more recently translated as "impassioned" and "zealous"

Basically, it means don't be yandere.
