Deuteronomy 9:21 (King James Version)
And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, and ground it very small, even until it was as small as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that descended out of the mount.

- Exodus 32:20 ; Isaiah 2:18-21 ; 30:22 31:7 Hosea 8:11
- the brook
- This was the stream which flowed from the rock that Moses smote with his rod, ( Exodus 17:6, ,)and to which the Psalmist alludes in Psalms 78:16-20 ; 105:41 . Philo relates, that upon Moses' striking the rock, the water poured out like a torrent, affording not only a sufficient quantity for allaying their present thirst, but to fill their water vessels, to carry with them on their journey.
