Eventually, Am Yisrael learned to
believe and trust only in one God. But there
was a significant learning curve.
When creating and worshiping the
Golden Calf, Am Yisrael did much more than
just desire something of a material nature to
turn toward in religious devotion or in search
of a power to trust in. The wishes of Am Yisrael had been affected by generations spent in
Egypt where we had been exposed to (and became part of) a culture that embraces a true
multiplicity of Gods. What we sought with
the creation of the Egel was to serve any and
all Gods of importance. For this reason,
Aharon declared “Eleh Elohecha… Asher
He`elucha (plural) M`Eretz Mitzrayim”.
There is an opinion that states that
there were numerous calves of gold that
emerged from the cauldron of melted ore.
How far-reaching was this misconception and error?
When demanding that we destroy the
Asheirah trees (used as foci of idolatry) that
the Israelites would find upon arrival in the
land of Canaan, God decrees that these trees
be destroyed even though they were growing
on Israel’s land – land that was rightfully ours.
How could the Canaanite pagans impart Issur
and resultant prohibitions that condemn trees
that were not rightfully theirs?
The Talmud explains that because the
Israelites, at the time of the Sin of the Egel,
desired to serve many Gods, the Canaanites
were considered as if they were acting on behalf of the wayward nation of Israel. [Avoda
Zara 53b]
Acceptance of the intolerable has farreaching consequences.
