The Jewish royal family in Roman times was descended from priests, and not from David. The starting point of this story is the fact that Josephus Flavius, and with him the whole Judaic priestly line, descended directly from Moses. Yet, according to the universally recognized and accepted tradition, all the priests descended from Moses's brother Aaron.

Since then, it has been continually reasserted with force and conviction, to the point of becoming an unquestioned truth that nobody has ever doubted, but ...

The image of the Golden Calf haunts the commentaries that thread through Leviticus. This catastrophic episode, in which the Israelites (freed from Egyptian slavery and forty days after their momentous encounter with God at Mount Sinai) worship a pagan idol while Moses is receiving the Torah from God on the mountaintop, gives the mostly legalistic text a unique depth and resonance. According to midrashic tradition, the post-traumatic effects of the sin of the Golden Calf linger through the generations, the sin to be “paid off” in small increments through time.
