We see that Satan the deceiving serpent was the first entity to defile good with evil when he questioned Elohim and tempted the first humans (Gen 2:9 cp. 3:1\u20136). The Hebrew word <i>babel <\/i>or <i>Babylon<\/i> means \u201cconfusion or mixture.\u201d It is the mixing of evil with good, error with truth, darkness with light, death with life. In the end times, the saints must first recognize such mixture by knowing the difference between the holy and the profane and then be able to separate the two, and then come away from that which is evil or part of Babylon (Exek 22:26; 44:23; Rev 18:4; 2 Cor 6:14\u201317.) Though mainstream Christianity and Judaism are biblically-based religious systems, both have allowed pagan traditions, celebrations belief systems to insinuate themselves into their religious practices. In these end times, YHVH is calling his people away from everything that is unholy and unbiblical (Rev 18:4).<\/p>\n<p><b>Exodus<\/b> <b>32:5,<\/b> <b><i>A feast. <\/i><\/b>Hebrew <i>chag <\/i>meaning \u201cfestival, feast, festival-gathering, pilgrim-feast or a festival sacrifice.\u201d In the Torah (e.g. Lev 23; Deut 16:16), only three of the seven biblical holidays are referred to as a <i>chag. <\/i>They are the pilgrimage festivals (e.g. Ps 42:4) called the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks or Harvest of First Fruits, and the Feast of Tabernacles or Ingathering. <i>Chag<\/i> can also refer to a pagan festival as is the case in Exod 32:5 at the golden calf, or to the feast instituted by Jeroboam I to replace the Feast of Tabernacles (1 Kgs 12:32\u201333; <i>The TWOT<\/i>).<\/p>\n<p>The verb <i>chaggag<\/i>, the root of <i>chag<\/i>, means \u201cto hold a feast, hold a festival, make pilgrimage, keep a pilgrim-feast, celebrate, dance, stagger, to keep a pilgrim-feast, to reel.\u201d <i>Chagag <\/i>primarily refers to celebrating the three biblical pilgrimage feasts, but can also refer to a pagan festival (1 Sam 30:16), or to sailers reeling to and fro on a ship as if drunk (Ps 107:27; ibid.).<\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s discuss the <i>feast<\/i> or <i>chag<\/i> that the Israelites made in honor of the gold calf. There is a strong likelihood that the day the Israelites dedicated to the worship of the golden calf was on the weekly Sabbath. The reasons to believe it was the Shabbat are as follows. Let us first assume that the Israelites received the ten commandments on Shavuot, which many of us believe was on a Sunday (i.e. 50 days after the morrow or day of the weekly Shabbat; see Lev 23:15\u201316). The next day\u2014a Monday\u2014(Exod 24:4), Moses built an altar and ratified the covenant with the Israelites (vv. 4\u20138). After that, Moses celebrated with the elders at the base of Mount Sinai (vv. 9\u201311). Next, Moses went up onto Mount Sinai to receive the tablets of stone (vv. 12\u201315). It had been six days since the glory of YHVH had been resting on the mountain (from Sunday to Saturday). On the seventh day or the weekly Shabbat, YHVH called Moses to enter the glory cloud where he remained with YHVH until his descent from Sinai. Moses was on the mountain from sometime Monday until Shabbat, when he entered the glory cloud. All total, Moses was on the mountain for forty days (vv. 16\u201318). At the end of 40 days, YHVH informed Moses of the people\u2019s sin (Exod 32:7). If Moses ascended the mountain sometime on Monday, then the same time on Tuesday would have been day one. Forty days later was the weekly Shabbat. Moses descended the mountain after YHVH informed him of the people\u2019s sin, and after forty days. This means that Moses descended on a Sunday. This also means that the people made a pagan feast to the golden calf on the Shabbat. Although the Bible never calls the Shabbat a <i>chag<\/i>, nevertheless, as we have seen above, the Bible refers to pagan celebrations as a <i>chag<\/i>. This is because pagan festivals were not solemn, but were often raucous, lewd, bacchanalian events\u2014hence the term <i>chag<\/i><i> <\/i>to indicate the festive nature of the event, though in a pejorative way.<\/p>\n<p><b>Exodus<\/b> <b>32:6,<\/b> <b><i>Play. <\/i><\/b>Heb. <i>tsachaq<\/i> means \u201cto laugh, mock, play, to laugh, to jest, to sport, make sport, toy with, make a toy of.\u201d In this verse, the verb <i>tsachaq <\/i>is in its <i>piel <\/i>(intensive active form) and means \u201cto jest, to sport, play, make sport, toy with, make a toy of\u201d (<i>The TWOT<\/i>). If the Israelite\u2019s festival dedicated to worship of the golden calf was on the weekly Shabbat (see notes above on v. 5), then YHVH\u2019s displeasure against the Israelites was not only for their idolatry, but for their profaning his holy Sabbath by using it as a time for partying and for carnal sporting activities. They were mocking, making light of, toying with YHVH\u2019s Shabbat, and were seeking their own sensual and carnal, if not, illicit pleasures on his day! This something that Scripture forbids (see Isa 58:13; 56:6).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/2017\/04\/29\/play-on-the-weekly-shabbat\/sports-equipment\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-10703\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-10703\" src=\"https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/AdobeStock_75531532-300x217.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"217\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/AdobeStock_75531532-300x217.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/AdobeStock_75531532-768x555.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/AdobeStock_75531532-1024x740.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/AdobeStock_75531532-415x300.jpeg 415w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Some reading this will justify themselves for\u00a0their profaning the Sabbath\u00a0by doing &#8220;their own pleasure&#8221; on that day as having nothing to do with golden calf worship.
