I'm wondering if any one sees a possible literary relationship between Peter's denial and Aaron's Golden Calf.

Perhaps the Aaron story created a pattern by which leadership was perceived within the 1st century Jewish mind-set which was easily transferred to the emerging church's narrative.

There are "skeletons in the closet" for leadership in both the temple & the church.

Is this a bit of a stretch?
