While the people were on the ground, carousing and worshiping the Golden Calf, the awe-inspiring theophany, the Lord’s glorious presence, manifested as fire, continued to cover the mountain (Deuteronomy 9:15). Golly Gee.    For all those who wrestle with the pain of rejection or betrayal, just think about this: Yahweh's bride actually cheated on Him, right in front of Him, during the flipping wedding, with a deaf, dumb, and blind Egyptian calf-god. -Joel Richardson
