What golden animal did the israelites make as an idol?

A golden calf (Exodus 32)


Who constructed the first altar covered with gold?

I think the first reference to an altar covered in gold is Aaron. When Moses was receiving the ten commandments from God at the top of the mountain and Aaron was in charge of all the people. They used the gold jewelry of the people to build an altar but it was a pagan tradition so when moses came down from the mount he broke the tablets God had written the 10 commandements on out of anger. But, obviously if the people knew to make an altar of gold they had seen someone do it before. The first sacrafices were Cain and Abel after God had blessed their work.


Why did the Israelite slaves have gold?

The Israelite ex-slaves had gold because the Egyptians willingly gave them whatever they wanted as remuneration for 400 years of slavery, just to get rid of them and any more plagues.Exo 11:1-3 KJV And the LORD said unto Moses, "Yet will I bring one plague more upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go hence: when he shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you out hence altogether. (v.2) Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man borrow of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold." (v.3) And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants, and in the sight of the people.In his "Notes On The Bible" on the word 'borrow' in Exodus 11:2, Albert Barnes then refers to his note on the same word in Exodus 11:2:-Shall borrow - shall ask.The Egyptians had made the people serve "with rigor," and the Israelites when about to leave the country for ever were to ask or claim the jewels as a just, though very inadequate, remuneration for services which had made "their lives bitter." The Egyptians ....recognized a divine interposition, which also they rightly attributed to the obstinacy of their own king (see Exo_10:7). The Hebrew women were to make the demand, and were to make it of women, who would of course be especially moved to compliance by the loss of their children, ....The Notes in the NET Bible are particularly good in showing what the words translated into English actually meant in the original language.Exo 11:2 NET Instruct the people that each man and each woman is to request5 from his or her neighbor6 items of silver and gold."5 translation note ... The meaning of the verb might be stronger than simply "ask"; it might have something of the idea of "implore" ...6 scriptural note Here neighbor refers to Egyptian neighbors, who are glad to see them go (Exo_12:33) and so willingly give their jewelry and vessels.Exodus 11:2 and 12:36 makes it clear the Egyptians willingly gave the Israelites anything just to get rid of them:-Exo 12:35-36 NET Now the Israelites had done as Moses told them - they had requested from the Egyptians silver and gold items and clothing. (v.36) The LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and they gave them whatever they wanted, and so they plundered Egypt.

Jeroboam was the chief originator in leading Israel (the Northern Kingdom) into idolatry. This he did by setting up two golden calves for worship and his own priesthood, in an attempt to get the people to stay in the north and not go to Jerusalem to worship as they were meant to.

Actually who created the golden calf not moses brother ( Aaron ) but he is a man called samiri . and he is one of moses group . But The Bible didnt mention for that . read the real story from Qura'an then u will know clearly everything .Christian View:It depends which golden calf. At one point in the Bible, Moses went up to Mount Sinai, but he took quite a while coming back. The Israelites thought he was dead and started getting restless.
