Commentary on Exodus 32:7
God's command to Moses לֶךְ־רֵד (lech-red, go, get down) is abrupt and urgent. God disassociates from Israel by calling them עַמְּךָ (amcha, 'your people') rather than 'My people,' and emphasizes אֲשֶׁר הֶעֱלִיתָ (asher he'elita, which you brought up) instead of acknowledging His own redemption. The verb שִׁחֵת (shichet, corrupted themselves) means to ruin utterly, to become depraved—they had destroyed their covenant relationship. The speed of their turning (מִהֲרוּ סָרוּ, miharu saru, quickly turned) reveals the human heart's instability without divine grace.
