Moses and the burning bush is a well-known story. It tells how Moses came to be the spokesperson, of sorts, for the Israelites and ultimately led them from bondage in Egypt to the Promised Land. When talking about this story, emphasis is often put on the bush being aflame but not being consumed by the fire – the miracle of the non-consuming flame. The non-consuming flame is often seen as a sign of God’s almighty power. The burning bush is seen in this way because for many it showcases God’s supreme ability to defy the laws of nature – burning bushes should be consumed by fire, but it was not the case in this instance. If God can defy the laws of nature, then perhaps there is no limit to what God can defy, perhaps there is no limit to God’s power. However, I propose looking at the burning bush through a different lens – seeing it as a symbol of the vulnerability of God.
