Dear Readers,
The Burning Bush of Bible
fame has just reappeared in our garden in
The burning bush (or
the unburnt bush) refers to an event recorded in the Jewish Torah (as
also in the biblical Old Testament). It
is described in the third chapter of the Book of Exodus[1] as having occurred
on Mount Horeb.
According to the biblical account, the bush was on fire, but was not consumed
by the flames, hence the name.[2] In the biblical narrative, the
burning bush is the location at which Moses was
appointed by Yahweh to
lead the Israelites out
of Egypt and
into Canaan.
