Chp. 32 verses 15 - 26: Moshe descends from the mountain and he is carrying the two tablets of testimony in his hands. They are engraved with the writing of Hashem on them. Moshe meets Yehoshua at the bottom of the mountain and he says that he hears the noise of war in the camp. Moshe corrects him and says that it is the sound of singing. When Moshe sees the golden calf he becomes angry and he breaks the tablets. He takes the calf and grounds it up into a powder and has the people drink it. He then questions Aaron about why he made the calf? Aaron tells him what the people said to him and that he told them to bring their gold and he threw it in the fire and out came the calf. Moshe saw that the people had become unrestrained and he stood at the gate of the camp and said whoever is for G-d come to me and the whole tribe of Levi came.
