According to Ainsworth, and divers other Expositors, by the Bush is meant the Church of God in great Affliction, the severe Trials of God's People being often set forth in the holy Scriptures by Fire, by a Flame of Fire, and sometimes by a smoking Furnace; as in Abraham's Vision, Gen. 15.17. And behold a smoking Furnace, and a burning Lamp, that passed between the Pieces. 1By the smoking Furnace was signified to Abraham, Israel's great Affliction in Egypt; and by the Lamp, the Law of God that afterwards was given; or, as some understand it, the Lamp of Deliverance, or that Salvation God would work for them, &c. for that the Salvation of God is like to a Lamp that burneth, Isa. 52.1.
