42. Moses' Intercession (Exodus 33: 11 - 17)
After the golden calf incident, God decided to depart from the Israelites and leave them to an angel to lead them. Then Moses interceded for the Israelites. So, God changed His mind of leaving the Israelites. How did Moses do it? Was God so easy to change mind even though the idol worshiping broke His commandments so badly? Or, is there something else? How could we learn from the incident?
