출애굽기 32:17 카발라: Zohar

R. Eleazar expounded our text in relation to Israel at the time when Moses descended from Mount Sinai, regarding which it is written: “And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses: There is a noise of war in the camp” (Ex. 32, 17). Is it possible that Joshua heard it and Moses did not hear it? The truth is that Moses knew already what had befallen, whilst Joshua only now became aware of it; and the word bere’oh (when they shouted) can read bera’ah, i.e. “in evil”, as that tumult proceeded from the “other side” (synonymous with evil). For Joshua, who (as compared with Moses) was emblematic of the moon, apprehended the sound that proceeded from the evil side, and straightway “he said unto Moses: There is a noise of war in the camp”.
