SUMMARY CONCLUSION:

Jealousy appears to be a judgment-only term pointing to God’s use of Babylon against the church in anger. Christ is the judge and therefore Jealousy would also point to Him on the judgment side. The salvation aspect of Jealousy seems point indirectly to God redeeming the Elect out of Babylon at the same time He destroys the Church.
