Introduction.
After the commandments had been
given by Jehovah and the covenant
assented to by the people, Moses went

ard 30 receive further instructions.
CSee Exodus 24.t2 TO 3t:i8,)
The Lesson Briefly Told.
When the people saw that Moses
delayed tn come down from the mount
they came TO Aaron with the request
thst ne make them gods. Aaron babe
thera bring their golden rings. which
were fashioned into golden calf. An
altar was erected before the image
and TIE people offered burnt offerings
and brought peace offerings. Moses
was going on below, but Jehovah saw
ia the cloud could not SO or hear what
II and rdered him down in haste.
The anger nj Jehovah WAS kindled
against Israel. and ne called them a
/ "stiffnecked people" Probably to
test Moses, Jehovah said. Let mo
alone. that may consume them. and
u will make of thee a great nation"
/ Moses stood the test and urged upon
Jehovah three pleas for mercy, viz:
I /. That the purpose of Jehovah IN
delivering the lsraeltes would be
thwarted should he carry into effect
his threat OF determination,
. That to STAY the Israeiites would
give the heather room to cast re-
/ preach against the name of Jehovah.
! g. That he had sworn to the patri-
archs to multiply their seed and give
them The land of promise.
Moses evidently overlooked the fact
THAT Jehovah could have carried into
effect hih promise even in the destruc-
ton Of that generation, bat the care
which Moses had for the word of Je-
hoVah must have been well pleasing
unto him.
Verses S0-sa record Moses prayer
ito Jehovah " when on tho morrow ne
went back Up the mountain to inter
cede for the people and TO secure the
forgiveness of Jehovah.

now have upon them the heaviest re-

noble president, II Is 50 d, opened n
