Aaron had told them before, "My people, you are deceived by the calf. Your Lord is the Beneficent God. Follow me and obey my orders". 90 They said, "We shall continue worshipping the calf until Moses comes back." 91 [Moses] said, "O Aaron, what prevented you, when you saw them going astray, 92 "That you followed me not (according to my advice to you)?

The moderate ones among them will say, "You did not live on earth for more than a day." 104
