It’s very well possible the ancients served other gods. The Israelites during that time were into idolatry that was BC.
there were jews before the Torah was given at Mt Sinai

why do you say "other Gods"

it says in the next line "Whoever finds me...finds life...and favor from The LORD God"

in the ancient sense: Anat was God's daughter, his holy house the temple enclosure...

when the Jews were liberated by Cambyses all of the egyptian temples were destroyed but the one to The LORD God.

Now the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river, and her maidens walked beside the river; she saw the basket among the reeds and sent her maid to fetch it. When she opened it she saw the child; and lo, the babe was crying. She took pity on him and said, "This is one of the Hebrews' children." Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, "Shall I go and call you a nurse from the Hebrew women to nurse the child for you?" And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Go." So the girl went and called the child's mother. And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages." So the woman took the child and nursed him. And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son; and she named him Moses, for she said, "Because I drew him out of the water."

— RSV, Exodus 2:5–10

most people when they read this assume that it is not a building...

No idea wtf that means but people have a problem with high almighty Christians trying to put their beliefs on other people as if that's the only legitimate stance and dismissing anyone who disagrees with them.

Instead, maybe children of god should shut the fukk up sometimes.
its an analogy to what youre saying is all.

on that same topic, Eliphaz was amongst the "sons of God" that appeared before God when they discussed Job and his name means "My God is Gold"

take that how you will

Either one God is real or no Gods are real

Just because you don’t want to talk about it or hear about it doesn’t mean you’re not going to die and get the answer you don’t care to hear

Life coming from non-life is non scientific, so until it’s proven that life can come from non-life, there is a Creator, and you’re going to meet Him one way or another
This isn't even relevant to the conversation. This isn't a discussion about whether there is a creator or not...and honestly I dont care to have that discussion with you or any posters on this board. It's not that I dont care to hear the answer. I don't care to hear your answers. It's all subjective.

The deepest insecurity of man is what will happen when they die and the question of who/what created us and why. Insecurities project. If I know something for certain why do I need to keep bringing it up or boisterously brandishing and going on the offensive with it?

My answer is my own. We will all die and find out or maybe we will die and not find out where our consciousness ceases to exist and any thoughts post death would be impossible. Could be. Could not be.

What I’m saying is some of the ancient Israelites kept falling into idolatry all throughout the scriptures. There’s a reason one of the commandments is not to have no other gods before me.

See that right there is why people get upset. It's an arrogance there. Its not about whether or not something is true and it's not about whether or not I believe you. It's about putting yourself in another person's shoes that just as much as you believe Jesus is the one true lord they believe something different just as much so.

You believe you know what you know and they believe they know what they know. Stop tryna convince them. The reality is and you won't agree with this and i don't care if you do, nobody knows anything for certain.

Christians believe non Christians are going to hell, Muslims believe non Muslims are going to hell, Buddhists believe in the karmic cycle so all you non enlightened bunch gonna get reincarnated based on your karma, etc. If you can't see how pushing your beliefs all in someone's faces as the end all be all with nothing else is gonna have them angry then this is an issue understanding interpersonal relationships

All of this !!!

most people believe what they believe because of their household and where they were born, things they don't have any control over, yet they conveniently ignore this when they reach adulthood and simply say 'if you don't believe what I believe then you're going to Hell'

it's arrogant and idiotic

sadly a lot of people think they have all the answers

yet you quote Solomon who took wives from Canaan and indirectly caused Israelite captivity to the Babylonians (gold worshippers) and Persians (fire worshippers)

I did you the favor of understanding the subtlety in the words you were quoting without trying to diminish what you are trying to convey to me.

remember, the covenant is between God and Abraham...Haran (fire) didnt believe in God until he saw Abraham surviving the flames...

Jeremiah 32:26-32

26 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah, saying,

27 Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

28 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he shall take it:

29 And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come and set fire on this city, and burn it with the houses, upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger.

30 For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have only done evil before me from their youth: for the children of Israel have only provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, saith the Lord.

31 For this city hath been to me as a provocation of mine anger and of my fury from the day that they built it even unto this day; that I should remove it from before my face,

32 Because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

I don’t care if people get triggered by me bringing up Jesus. That’s their problem.
