Riverside(i)
30 "When forty years had passed, an angel appeared to him in the desert of Mount Sinai in the flames of a burning bush.
31 When Moses saw the sight he was astonished, but as he was approaching to look closely, the voice of the Lord was heard,
32 'I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob.' Then Moses trembled and did not dare to look closely.
33 The Lord said to him, 'Loose your sandals from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground.
34 I have plainly seen the distress of my people in Egypt and I have heard their groans and have come down to deliver them. Come now and I will send you to Egypt.'
35 "This Moses whom they disowned, saying, 'Who made you a ruler and judge?' — this man God sent as ruler and deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
