 The most common translation begins, you shall have no other gods before me. The commandment then goes on to prohibit both making idols and worshipping idols. Most people, when they think of this commandment, understandably think that it only prohibits the worship of idols and the worship of gods, such as the ancient pagan gods of rain, of fertility, all the other nature gods, and chief gods, such as the Roman Jupiter and the Greek Zeus.
