Answer:
False.
Explanation:
Book of Exodus, in the Bible, is the book which accounts the coming out of Israelites from Egyptian slavery. This exodus was led by Moses, chosen and appointed by God (Yahweh).
<u>In chapter 20 of Exodus, verse 3 states the commandment given by Lord God (Yahweh) to </u><u><em>'have no other gods before Him.' </em></u><u>This commandment does demand exclusive covenant loyalty. Disobedience of this commandment is considered idolatry, despised by Yahweh. The further verse states that worshipping other gods before Yahweh makes Him jealous, just as in the relationship between a husband and wife</u>.
Thus the given statement is <u><em>false</em></u>, as Yahweh does demand exclusive covenant loyalty.
