Yes, it means that nothing can come before God not even Jesus. Evne though some people say that God is above Jesus or that they are equal, Jesus is talked and sung about a LOT more. This also aplies to the Holy Spirit

Since the Son and the Father are one, no it does not include the Son. An easy way to understand the Trinity is to see God as Mind/Body/Spirit. You have a mind, a body, and a spirit. Are you 3 people? No. God as Father is the Mind, God in human form (body) is Jesus, and God as Spirit is the Holy Spirit. They are not 3 Gods, they are all part of the ONE God. Of whom you should not worship anything or anyone more than.

Jesus the Son is God. See Hebrews 1:8, John 1:1, John 8:58, Colossians 2:9, etc... www.equip.org

The Father and the Son are indivisible. Jesus came not to take God's place but to fulfill God's word. You can't have one without the other.

It means that you should not worship money, or idols, or anything else as a God, before God himself. When it comes to this commandment look at God and Jesus the same. Nothing should come before them.

The Son is the God before whom you shall have no other gods. As it is written "I and the Father are One." (John 10:30)

Basically it's anything that takes the place of God -whether its money, sex, family, work, friends -God should be our first priority!

His son is a part of God

The Hebrew god was supposed to be one person, not three, so I would guess that would include the son.

GOD=three beings (Father, son, and holy spirit), God was reffering to other false gods, such as the pagans, which don't worship the true God, they would worship the creation (sun, stars, nature, etc.) instead of the creator.
