God finishes explaining all his rules and Moses returns to his people to find them being sinful
* God spent so long telling Moses all those detailed rules that the Israelites decided to make their own gods (a golden calf) and worship them by dancing naked and sacrificing some animals. That's definitely the first thing I'd think to do if I was bored.
* God has another totally unreasonable reaction, because they weren't following his rules (which they hadn't been told yet as Moses was still chatting with God on Mount Sinai) 3000 of them die by the swords of the people God doesn't mind so much and then sends a plague for the rest of them because he hadn't finished being angry about them defying him.
* Moses broke the tablets with the rules on in his anger so I guess that means he'll have to go back and get some more, great.
