Wesley's Notes for Exodus 32:17

32:15 On both their sides - Some on one table and some on the other, so that they were folded together like a book, to be deposited in the ark.

32:16 The writing of God - Very probably the first writing in the world.

32:19 He saw the calf, and the dancing, and his anger waxed hot - It is no breach of the law of meekness to shew our displeasure at wickedness. Those are angry and sin not, that are angry at sin only. Moses shewed himself angry, both by breaking the tables, and burning the calf, that he might by these expressions of a strong passion awaken the people to a sense of the greatness of their sin. He broke the tables before their eyes, as it is #Deu 9:17|, that the sight of it might fill them with confusion when they saw what blessings they had lost. The greatest sign of God's displeasure against any people is his taking his law from them.
