- AStonesThrow 1y agoHonestly once I started thinking deeply about "The Burning Bush" I couldn't help but imagine it as an encounter with a volcano. Couched in mystical language, I am sure that many Canaanites and Egyptians couldn't even conceive of an active, erupting volcano in real life. And perhaps, just perhaps, Moses being identified with the Moon in certain contexts, a volcanic Yahweh Burning Bush would've been truly transcendent, indeed. Thank you!
