Lesson 245: The Golden Calf

Updated: Jul 8, 2024

Ex. 24:12-18; 31:18; 32


Full Lesson HERE



INTRODUCTION. When God delivered the Ten Commandments to the children of Israel from Mount Sinai, He descended to the top of the mountain and spoke from a thick cloud. God desired that the people hear him speaking with Moses, so they would believe that He had chosen Moses as their leader (Ex. 19:9).

When the people witnessed the thunder, lightning, the sound of the trumpet, and the

smoking of the mountain, they were frightened. They asked that God speak to them only through Moses lest they die (Ex. 20: 19). Moses then went up into the mountain to receive the law from God.
