Burning Bush
A bush in which the Lord appeared to Moses when he gave him his commission to bring Israel out of Egypt ( Ex. 3: 2-4). Although the bush burned, it was not consumed, and this circumstance caught Moses’ attention. The event was referred to by Jesus in speaking to the Sadducees ( Mark 12: 26; Luke 20: 37). Stephen also makes mention of it ( Acts 7: 30). In latter-day revelation the experience is verified in Moses 1: 17.
