There is pure and beautiful jealousy found in relationships between a husband and a wife, a father and a son, and God with his creation. It is not a vile nor brut emotion, but one that is found in earnest desire of companionship and excitement. It chases after the heart and attention of that which is lost, so that he or she may find safe haven in his communion and peace. As a father and friend, God is jealous for us.
Amazing love is his jealousy!
Exodus 34:14
14 Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
