Matthew 25:31-46
Two separate but related events from the life of Moses (Exodus 3:1–5) are depicted here: Moses, a shepherd tending his flock, sees a burning bush that fire does not consume, and God appears in the bush and instructs Moses to remove his shoes because the ground upon which he stands is holy.
