Why was God so particular in destroying the other pagan Gods? will it be not okay just to tell His people not to follow these People made Gods? Why will He have to be so rooted in wiping away the very core of the existence of any other God?
God is a jealous God. He considered and still considers His chosen seed as His own asset and it could be because of that may be He was able to tolerate the people when they complained about water and food but not when they proclaimed other goddesses through the making of the bull.
