Besides these mysticall, there wants not a morall application of this miracle, S. Austin makes it a resemblance of the Ingratefull Israelites. As the Bush (though the fire was in the midst of it) did not take fire, so notwithstanding God strove with them by his spirit, yet their sin was not destroyed. S. Gregory, (with whom accords Chrysologus) understandeth likewise by the Bush the people of Isreal, but by that fire the Law, which is called a fiery Law, and as the fire could not consume the Bush, no more could the Law of God consume the thornes of their sins. De la Haye conceiveth the Bush and the Fire to be Emblems of Mercy and severity, both which ought to meet together in every good Ruler, so as that pitty may not consume justice. Once more, Lapide compareth originall concupiscence in the regenerate to the Bush, for as that burned but was not consumed, so this is weakned, but not destroyed, subdued, but not extirpated. |
