The Burning Bush

This bush on our front lawn is so striking every fall. It has a lot of biblical meaning.

The motto of the Church of Scotland is Nec tamen consumebatur - Latin for Yet it was not consumed, an allusion to the biblical description of the burning bush, and a stylised depiction of the burning bush is used as the Church's symbol. Usage dates from the 1690s.

Thanks for the hearts and stars for my Anne of Green Gables blip, much appreciated.
