The people of Samaria travel over to Crime Cityto worship the golden calf-god.They go all out, prancing and hollering,taken in by their showmen priests.They act so important around the calf-god,but are oblivious to the sham, the shame.They have plans to take it to Assyria,present it as a gift to the great king.And so Ephraim makes a fool of himself,disgraces Israel with his stupid idols.
