Day 38-No Other Gods

Today's Reading: Exodus 20-21:15
For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God who will not tolerate your affection for any other gods. (Exodus 20:5b)  This verse does not read like this in my other translations, so I view it as an addition that expands upon the word jealous and what that means. 

Webster's definition of jealous:
1: hostile toward a rival or one believed to enjoy an advantage
2: intolerant of rivalry or unfaithfulness
3: vigilant in guarding a possession

​Every time I read it in the New Living Translation it really gives me pause and forces me to think,  Do I have affections that compete with God?
May grace abound,
