Aztec, Nahuatl-speaking people who in the 15th and early 16th centuries ruled a large empire in what is now central and southern Mexico. The name Aztec is derived from Aztlán (variously translated as “White Land,” “Land of White Herons,” or “Place of Herons”), an allusion to their origins, probably in northwestern Mexico. They were also called the Tenochca, from an eponymous ancestor, Tenoch, and the Mexica, probably from Metzliapán (“Moon Lake”), the mystical name for Lake Texcoco. From Tenochca was derived the name of their great city, Tenochtitlán, founded on an island in Lake Texcoco, in the Valley of Mexico. From Mexica came the name for the city that superseded the Aztec capital and for the surrounding valley, which was applied later to the whole Mexican nation. The Aztecs referred to themselves as Culhua-Mexica, to link themselves with Colhuacán, an important urban in the Valley of Mexico.

The narrative of God's anger and Moses' plea is a profound episode in the biblical account, illustrating the dynamics of divine justice, mercy, and intercession. This event is primarily recorded in the Book of Exodus, specifically in chapters 32-34, where Moses intercedes on behalf of the Israelites after they commit idolatry by worshiping the golden calf. The Israelites, having been delivered from Egyptian bondage, are encamped at Mount Sinai. Moses ascends the mountain to receive the Law from God. During his prolonged absence, the people grow restless and demand that Aaron make them gods to lead them. Aaron complies, fashioning a golden calf, which the people worship with revelry, declaring, "These, O Israel, are your gods, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt." God's response to this idolatry is one of righteous anger. He informs Moses of the people's corruption, saying, "Now leave Me alone, so that My anger may burn against them and consume them. Then I will make you into a great nation". This declaration underscores God's holiness and intolerance of idolatry, reflecting His covenantal expectations for Israel to remain faithful. Moses' intercession is a pivotal moment in this narrative. He implores God to relent from His wrath, appealing to His reputation among the Egyptians and His promises to the patriarchs. Moses argues, "Turn from Your fierce anger; relent and do not bring disaster on Your people. Remember Your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, to whom You swore by Your own self". Moses' plea is rooted in a deep understanding of God's character and covenantal faithfulness. In response to Moses' intercession, "the LORD relented from the disaster He had threatened to bring on His people". This demonstrates the power of intercessory prayer and God's willingness to show mercy. However, it is important to note that while God spares the nation, He still enacts justice by punishing those directly involved in the idolatry.
