In Exodus God said You will have no other God before me does this mean that other Gods do exist?

Answer 1

God does not hide himself/herself. HE is watching everybody irrespective of the fact that whether a person is doing good thing or bad thing. Suppose if, a person is committing a sin (of any kind) then it is also the fate of the sufferer that he/she is getting paid for his/her sins in the past. If God starts punishing every individual then there would be a dooms day in a few moments and all is destroyed. Because there is no person who can say that I haven't done any crime/sin since his/her birth. Sinners are classified in various categories just like there are prisoners, some are getting one month, two month jail and in the very same prison a hard-core criminal is getting life term sentence. So, God punishes everybody one day or the other but according to the volume of the Sin one has committed.

By and large, the Jewish traditions did not deny the existence of other Gods. They only held that they should worship no other Gods before the God of Israel.

The belief that there was only one God was a later development.

Answer 5

Not necessarily, it could simply be an acknowledgment that other gods are worshiped (they don't have to exist for people to worship them)--and the simple restriction don't worship them.

Atheists who don't believe in God would never say they don't believe that worship occurs. It clearly does that is an empirical fact--even if they would dispute the existence of that which is worshiped.

The vast majority of Old Testament Scriptures which speak of "gods" are speaking of false gods, those who claim to be gods but are not, idols. 2 Kings 19:18 summarizes it nicely, "They have thrown their gods into the fire and destroyed them, for they were not gods but only wood and stone, fashioned by men's hands." Notice Psalm 82:6, "I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.' But you will die like mere men; you will fall like every other ruler."
