Could someone translate the information from the German article on the subject and import into this one? Thanks -- Etz Haim 22:17, 14 Sep 2004 (UTC)

"...the burning bush, which is alive and on the grounds..." Preposterous! But this is an example of Wikipedia "NPOV" isn't it? --Wetman 02:52, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

It is what is claimed by the monks there. I adjusted it to read "...which is purportedly alive and on the grounds." --Preost 12:12, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)


ยง2 tails off in the middle of a sentence. or at the start at least. anyone know what's meant to go after "Ships", or can it be removed? (i also fixed a couple of typos i spotted) -- 62.252.64.15 6 July 2005 00:21 (UTC)

[edit] Still a stub?

At this point, the article seems long enough that it need not be labeled as a stub. But typically, how long is an article that is not a stub? --138.129.200.145 00:14, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC) (That was my comment; forgot to log in. --Benfergy 00:17, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Not the original bush?

Wikipedia article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burning_bush refers to "St Katherine's Monastery" having a claimed living * descendant * of Moses' original bush. It appears that some cleaning up should be done.

If a lot of these bushes grow around there then it doesn't seem that Moses' discovery was so special, although I suppose that God talking through it makes it an event. If you set the bush on fire, does it become a telephone?

You wouldn't want to keep it at home, would you?
