(Deuteronomy 6:4, World English Bible)[1] Reciting the Shema affirms an individual's faith in one God.
For example, the second of the Ten Commandments states: "You shall not make for yourselves an idol, nor any image of anything that is in the heavens above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: you shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me, and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments."
Paul the Apostle has extended the concept of divine jealousy to include accepting false doctrines.
But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
He instead suggests it is Christ (the groom) who has reason to be jealous when his bride (the church) turns to false doctrines about Him.
(10:21–22, World English Bible)[1] A hadith attributed to Abu Hurairah reports:[2] Sunni muslims tend to view this as Sahih.
(Book of Proverbs 6:32–35, World English Bible)[1] The destructive potential of romantic jealousy may underlie the strong prohibitions against actions that can provoke it.
Two of the Ten Commandments prohibit feelings and actions that could potentially provoke romantic jealousy.
The destructive potential of male romantic jealousy may also underlie a ritual in the Mosaic laws that test the sexual fidelity of a wife.
If the wife has been sexually unfaithful, the drink will cause her to die: the flesh will fall off her thighs and her belly will bloat.
The outcomes of this ritual are designed to appease the husband's jealousy and prove the wife's innocence, since there are no witnesses.
Because of the destruction of the Temple, Modern Jewish people do not practice all the rituals of ancient Judaism, such as the one just described.
Thus, these scholars advise dealing with jealousy by being grateful (shukr) for what one has, and being patient (sabr) while waiting for what one desires.
Irshya is defined as a state of mind in which one is highly agitated to obtain wealth and honor for oneself, but unable to bear the excellence of others.
