(2) When Moses was married, he was out in the field keeping his wife’s father’s sheep when he saw a burning bush. And a voice spoke out from the burning bush and said, “Draw not nigh hither, put off thy shoes from off thy feet for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.” It was God speaking to him, and God told him to go and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt. But Moses said, “Who am I to go to Pharaoh? he won’t listen to me,” and God said that he would be with him. But Moses said, “Pharaoh will not believe that God has spoken to me at all.” Then God said, “I will teach you to make signs before Pharaoh.” But Moses said, “I am slow of speech.” And God was angry with Moses and said that he would send his brother Aaron to do the speaking.
II. (1) Jesus was surrounded with people and there was a man sick of the palsy wanted to see him; and he was let down through the roof on his bed which was only a mattress. And Jesus said, “Rise, take up thy bed and walk.” And the man took up his bed and was cured.
(2) When Jesus was crossing the sea of Galilee with his disciples to the other side there arose a great storm, and Jesus’ disciples thought that they would be thrown into the sea. And they awoke Jesus and said to him, “Master, carest thou not that we perish.” And Jesus woke up and said to the sea and the foam, “Peace, be still.” And his disciples marvelled and said, “What manner of man is this that even the sea obeys him.”
