The glory of God

Exodus 24:9-11 - "Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and the seventy elders of Israel went up and saw the God of Israel. Under his feet was something like a pavement made of sapphire, clear as the sky itself. But God did not raise his hand against these leaders of the Israelites; they saw God, and they ate and drank."
These men sat with God, eating and drinking.  What an amazing experience.  And Aaron was there.  I cannot believe that a few chapters later (I'm getting ahead of the reading) he goes down and makes a golden calf for the people, when a few days earlier he had actually seen God!
