Exodus 32:22
Compare all
20 aThen he took the calf which they had made, burned it in the fire, and ground it to powder; and he scattered it on the water and made the children of Israel drink it.  
21 And Moses said to Aaron, a“What did this people do to you that you have brought so great a sin upon them?”  
22 So Aaron said, “Do not let the anger of my lord become hot. aYou know the people, that they are set on evil.  
23 For they said to me, ‘Make us gods that shall go before us; as for this Moses, the man who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’
24 And I said to them, ‘Whoever has any gold, let them break it off.’ So they gave it to me, and I cast it into the fire, and this calf came out.”
25 Now when Moses saw that the people were aunrestrained (for Aaron bhad not restrained them, to their shame among their enemies),  
26 then Moses stood in the entrance of the camp, and said, “Whoever is on the Lord’s side—come to me!” And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.

Exodus 32:21-24

You talk about justification! That one is a bell-ringer. This ridiculous justification is deliberately placed in the Bible to show what happens when human beings create their perception of God. It always turns out to be a model or copy of something that God has already made, and most frequently on a much, much lower level than another man as well. God only is to be served. How much power did that golden calf have?
