Studie

       

8 Pian he poikkesivat siltä tieltä, jota minä käskin heidän kulkea; he tekivät itselleen valetun vasikan. Sitä he ovat kumartaneet, ja sille he ovat uhranneet ja sanoneet: 'Tämä on sinun jumalasi, Israel, se, joka on johdattanut sinut Egyptin maasta'."

10512. 'Which Aaron made' means that it exists as a result of the external things which alone they love. This is clear from the representation of 'Aaron' as the external side of the Word, the Church, and worship, dealt with in 10397, 10468, 10480. When the external alone is loved the external is said to make that [idol]; but the nation which loves external things alone should be understood by this.
