Exodus chs. 24&32 By: Edward Short© 1.Ex. 24:1-8: Once again the people said that they would obey God’s _____. Vs.4: Had writing instruments already been invented? ____. Could Moses write? ____. Vs. 7: Moses took “the Book of the Covenant and r___ it to the people.” They responded: “We will do everything the LORD has said; we will o____.” 2.What did Moses use to ratify and promulgate (put into effect) the Book of the Covenant”? B____. 3.Ex. 24:9-11: “Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and the seventy elders of Israel went up and saw the God of Israel.” Explain this. (See Gen. 32:30; Ex. 33:17-23; Num. 12:8; Joshua 13; Col. 1:15; 2 Tim. 6:15-16. What Moses, Aaron and others saw was a rare phenomena indeed; see 2 Cor. 12:1-4. 4Ex. 24:12-18: What did Moses do? Who accompanied Moses up the mountain? How long was Moses on the mountain? It seems that Moses was alone when he entered the the c____ . Vs. 17: To the Israelites the g____ of the LORD looked like a consuming f____ on top of the mountain. 5.Ex. 32:1-4: What did the people quickly forget? What commandment did they quickly break? Who cooperated with them in this? Why do you think Aaron did this? Did Aaron want to forsake the real God? For what did Aaron ask the people? Aaron used these things and made them “into an idol cast in the shape of a calf, fashioning it with a tool.” The people (not Aaron) said: “These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt.” Up to this point, what commandments had they broken? Perhaps Aaron did not intend for the people to worship the golden calf. Some Bible scholars think that Aaron’s purpose was for the gold calf to act as a pedestal on which the true God would be set (as was the function of the ark of the covenant). (See Clyde M. Woods, The Living Way Commentary on the Old Testament, vol. 1: Genesis-Exodus, p. 211.) 6.Ex. 32:5: When Aaron saw this, he built an altar in front of the c___.” Perhaps Aaron wanted to change the people’s thinking and actions, so he announced, "Tomorrow there will be a festival to the L___." Aaron woke up and wanted to change the focus of the people to Jehovah, but it was too l____. Do you think Aaron was “guilty” or “not guilty” in this sin of the people? 7.Ex. 32:6: “…the people …sat down to eat and drink and got up to indulge in revelry.” The Israelites adopted religious practices of the Canaanites (which included sexual activity and orgies, etc). Once Aaron allowed the people to go their own way, there was no way for him to bring them back. Who is hurt by this type of action? Now what commandment have the people broken? Who told Moses about this situation? Ex. 32:9-14: What was God’s reaction (two things)? How did Moses change God’s thinking? From this we know that God has e______ and that Moses is very h______. 8.Ex. 32:15-16: Describe the items Moses was carrying in his hands. Ex. 32:17-18: “When Joshua heard the noise of the people shouting,“ he thought it was the sound of w____. Moses corrected him however and said it was the sound of ______________________. 9.Ex. 32:19-24: “When Moses approached the camp and saw the calf and the dancing, his a_____ burned and he threw the tablets out of his hands, breaking them to pieces at the foot of the mountain. And he took the calf they had made and burned it in the fire; then he ground it to p_____, scattered it on the water and made the Israelites d_____ it.” Moses asked Aaron, "What did these people do to you, that y____ led them into such great s___?" And so Moses did not think Aaron was without r__________ in this matter. What two excuses did Aaron give Moses? What commandment did Aaron break? Why do you think God did not punish Aaron? 10.Ex. 32:26-35: Who was “for” the Lord? Explain vs. 29; read it in several translations. How can Christians accept and explain vs. 27-29? Vs. 30: Could their sins be forgiven? Once again we see Moses exhibit what quality? Vs. 33: God said that each person must take re_________ for his own sins. Vs. 34: What did God tell Moses as an encouragement to him? Eventually, “when the time comes for [God] to punish, [God] will punish them for their s___.” Had we been present on that day, what would have been our end? Would we have been “for” God or not? Alive or dead? (2004.10.24)(2005.5 Rev.) License Agreement for Bible Texts These Scriptures: • May not be altered or modified in any form.
