Exodus 31:18 KJV
And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
Exodus 32:1 KJV
And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
What an amazing contrast between the last verse of chapter thirty and the first of chapter thirty one. We travel
• From the top of the Mountain to the ground below
• From one man meeting with God to the crowd of men blaspheming Him
• From Moses receiving the Ten Commandments to Israel breaking them
And how often is that same chasm of contrast an illustration of our own spiritual experience! We who are the children of God so often betray the basest elements of humanity.
May God grant us to live more consistently what it is God has done in our souls.
