Reply to comment by WrongAspects in Life can’t be reduced to a rulebook. But committing to certain moral principles can help us navigate life better. by IAI_Admin

This is a pretty weak take. For the sake of the argument assume that the old testament is 100% accurate. What is the outcome for the Hebrews every time they forget their God and start worshipping idols? It's not good things, let me tell you that much. You can of course disagree on the accuracy of the old testament, but the internal logic is clearly not that God gives one of the 10 commandments out of jealousy.

It’s not one of the commandments. Half of the commandments are about God himself.

BTW none of the commandments forbid rape or slavery out child abuse.
