Symbols: Baby in Basket,
Stone Tablets, Burning Bush
Moses led the Israelites, the Chosen
people, out of Egypt to the Promised Land. Later, he received the Ten
Commandments from the hand of God on Mount Sinai.
God appeared to Moses in the form of a bush, which burned
but was not consumed, a symbol of the Virgin Birth of Christ. The Law
of Moses as symbolized in the tablets which God gave to Moses on Mount
Sinai, was fulfilled in Christ who brings a law of love.
