A Bible study from me related to why I see God as jealous of His people (both those of Jewish heritage and those children of Abraham through faith).

Then Moses climbed up the mountain, and the cloud covered it. And the glory of the LORD settled down on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day the LORD called to Moses from inside the cloud. To the Israelites at the foot of the mountain, the glory of the LORD appeared at the summit like a consuming fire. - Exodus 24:15-17 NLT — Then Moses climbed up the mountain, and the cloud covered it.

Reading through Genesis’ account of God’s direction to Noah this morning and it struck me that God is worthy of worship. He directed Noah to take 14 of every clean animal (seven males & seven females) because these were good for eating and sacrifice.

2 “You shall take with you of every clean animal by sevens, a male and his female; and of the animals that are not clean two, a male and his female; ” Gen 7:2 NASB

After the waters had receded and Noah and his family could exit the ark he made a burnt offering to worship God because God is good and worthy of worship.
