 TOP OF THK HILIv OF THE GOLDEN CALF, WITH ITS ROUND MOHAMMEDAN CHAPEIv 



Behind are the lofty peaks of Jebel Safsafah of the Jebel Musa Range. 



"And the Lord said unto Moses, 'Go, get thee down ; for thy people, which thou brought- 

 est out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves.' "... "And Moses turned, and 

 went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand : the tables 

 were written on both their sides ; on the one side and on the other were they written. And 

 the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the 

 tables. . . . And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw 

 the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his 

 hands, and brake them beneath the mount. And he took the calf which they had made and 

 burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the 

 children of Israel drink of it." Exodus xxxii.
