wafflehead posted the following in ralation to the contradiction.
"Saying that God is jealous conveys a necessary understanding to uneducated people.
If it helps to say God is black here and later say God is white there it is merely conveying an understanding. People, even then in a relatively ignorant state compared to todays general state understood that God was not literally jealous but it gave them a concept they could grasp."
I don't agree with the logic but I think he has a point about the audience.
The bible is supposed to apply for all time.
Perhaps there is a message here.
