Exodus 32:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Exodus 32:6

4 ^aAnd he received the gold from their hand, and he fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made a molded calf. Then they said, “This is your god, O Israel, that ^bbrought you out of the land of Egypt!”

5 So when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it. And Aaron made a ^aproclamation and said, “Tomorrow is a feast to the Lord.”

6 Then they rose early on the next day, offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people ^asat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

7 And the Lord said to Moses, ^a“Go, get down! For your people whom you brought out of the land of Egypt ^bhave corrupted themselves.

8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way which ^aI commanded them. They have made themselves a molded calf, and worshiped it and sacrificed to it, and said, ^b‘This is your god, O Israel, that brought you out of the land of Egypt!’ ”

9 And the Lord said to Moses, ^a“I have seen this people, and indeed it is a¹ stiff-necked people!

10 Now therefore, ^alet Me alone, that ^bMy wrath may burn hot against them and I may¹ consume them. And ^cI will make of you a great nation.”
