Moses Descends from Mount Sinai

Print shows Moses preparing to smash the Ten Commandment tablets as, in the background, Israelites dance around the golden calf. Hebrew Publishing Company, (between 1900 and 1920). According to Exodus, God told Moses what the Israelites were up to back in camp, that they had turned aside quickly out of the way which God commanded them and he was going to destroy them and start a new people from Moses. Moses argued and pleaded that they should be spared, and God agreed. Moses went down from the mountain, but upon seeing the calf, he became angry and threw down the two Tablets of Stone, breaking them. Moses was, according to the Hebrew Bible and Qur'an, a religious leader, lawgiver and prophet, to whom the authorship of the Torah is traditionally attributed. He is the most important prophet in Judaism and is also considered an important prophet in Christianity and Islam, as well as a number of other faiths.
