We trace Aaron’s excuses, Moses’ righteous anger, and why holiness cannot be optional. The story of the golden calf becomes a test of leadership, worship, modesty, and the cost of standing with the Lord.

• blame shifting and the refusal to repent
• the lie of “out came this calf”
• nakedness and the loss of modesty in worship
• Moses’ call to choose the Lord’s side
• the Levites’ costly obedience and its purpose
• Old Testament judgment vs New Testament discipline
• purging leaven to protect the whole
• a call to clean living, holy worship, truthful leadership
