/* Historical */
'''Other gods''' describes deities other than the Abrahamic [[God]] of the Jewish, Christian and Muslim faiths. <s>The term comes from the [[Ten Commandments]], where God said, "You shall have no other gods before me"</s>({{Bible ref|Exodus|20|3}}). The term and concept is older than the bible.
While the word "god" refers, in a general sense, to any deity that is or has been [[worship|worshipped]] ped as part of a theistic belief system, when spelled with an upper-case "G," the term is normally referring to the God of the [[Abrahamic religions]].
