NETBible

saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods who will go in front of us, for this Moses, who led us out of the land of Egypt¹ – we do not know what has happened to him!’²

NET Notes

¹tn Or simply “of Egypt.” The phrase “the land of” could be omitted as unnecessary or redundant.

²sn A quotation from Exod 32:1, 23. Doubt (we do not know what has happened to him) expresses itself in unfaithful action. The act is in contrast to God’s promise in Exod 23:20.
