Exodus 32:8

Context
NETBible

They have quickly turned aside 1  from the way that I commanded them – they have made for themselves a molten calf and have bowed down to it and sacrificed to it and said, ‘These are your gods, O Israel, which brought you up from the land of Egypt.’”

XREF

Ex 20:3,4,23; Ex 32:4; De 9:16; Jud 2:17; 1Ki 12:28

NET © Notes

tn The verb is a perfect tense, reflecting the present perfect nuance: “they have turned aside” and are still disobedient. But the verb is modified with the adverb “quickly” (actually a Piel infinitive absolute). It has been only a matter of weeks since they heard the voice of God prohibiting this.
