What brought the Jews to worship the golden calf?


From the Shiur
Rosh Chodesh and Women
Teacher: Rebbetzin Tziporah Heller Class: Jewish Calendar I (Elul and Rosh Hashana)

What brought the Jews to worship the golden calf? They had a sub conscious agenda that they wanted to do what ever they wanted. Once they created their own object of worship, they could justify anything they wanted.

One of the hardest things in the world is surrendering our will to Hashem, but that is what we are in the world for. As we make an effort to really change and do Hashem's will, we have to be careful not to let our own agenda creep in.
