I was reading Ex. 32: this morning and noticed that Aaron asked the men to take out the earrings from their wives, sons and daughters.
Does anyone know if the Egyptians practiced piercing the ears of thier slaves? Was the earring in the "wives, sons, and daughters" an earring of a slave?
Why did not the men have have the earrings? It does not seem to be gender related because the sons had the earrings.
