1 Corinthians 10:22 - Exposition

Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? ( Deuteronomy 32:21 ," They have moved me to jealousy by that which is not God"). The expression, "a jealous God," is used in the second commandment with express reference to idolatry, as in Exodus 34:14 , Exodus 34:15 . Are we stronger than he? Can we, therefore, with impunity, kindle his anger against us? "He is… mighty in strength: who hath hardened himself against him, and hath prospered?" ( Job 9:4 ).
