Rashi on Exodus 32:24/רש"י על שמות ל״ב:כ״ד
אואמר להם. דָּבָר אֶחָד – "לְמִי זָהָב" לְבַד – וְהֵם מִהֲרוּ וְהִתְפָּרְקוּ וַיִּתְּנוּ לִי:
1ואמר להם AND I SAID UNTO THEM one single thing, — simply, “Who has any gold?” — but they hastened and broke it off from themselves and gave it to me.
בואשלכהו באש. וְלֹא יָדַעְתִּי שֶׁיֵּצֵא הָעֵגֶל הַזֶּה, וְיָצָא:
2ואשלכהו באש AND I CAST IT INTO THE FIRE, and I did not know that this (i. e. this living) calf would come out, ויצא — BUT IT DID COME OUT.
