Basically he means exactly the same thing John Lennon means in his song "Jealous Guy". It's a word that hasn't changed in meaning in four hundred years. Look it up in a dictionary if you like.

This feature of overprotectiveness is often the quality Shakespeare is thinking of when he uses the word "jealous" or "jelaousy".
