Wesley's Notes for Exodus 32:31
32:31 Oh, this people have sinned a great sin - God had first told him of it, #Ex 32:7|, and now he tells God of it by way of lamentation. He doth not call them God's people, he knew they were unworthy to be called so, but this people. This treacherous ungrateful people, they have made them gods of gold.
