sense in the lessons
In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: Here it means shaped or carved with a tool. Aaron shapes the gold into the calf. In the Prophets and Writings it also means made or formed, whether an idol by a craftsman or a person by God's hands. Interpretation: Commentators argue about Aaron's part in the golden calf. Some say he was forced into it and tried to delay the people, and the story is read as a warning about idolatry. Isaiah mocks idols made by hand, while the psalmist prays to the God who fashioned him to teach him. In the primary lessons: In history lessons, children compare old-fashioned toys, clothes and machines with modern ones. In stories, a character might fashion a raft or a spear from sticks. Phrases: «old-fashioned», «good old-fashioned …», «fashioned from», «fashioned into».
