rwp Acts:7:30
rwp@Acts:7:30 @Sentence begins with genitive absolute again. {In a flame of fire in a bush} (\en phlogi puros batou\). Horeb in strkjv@Exodus:3:1|; but Sinai and Horeb were "probably peaks of one mountain range" (Page), Horeb "the mountain of the dried-up ground," Sinai "the mountain of the thorns." Literally, "in the flame of fire of a bush" (two genitives, \puros\ and \batou\ dependent on \phlogi\, flame). Descriptive genitives as in strkjv@9:15; strkjv@2Thessalonians:1:8|. \Batos\ (bush) is the wild acacia (_mimosa nilotica_). In strkjv@Exodus:3:20| it is Jehovah who speaks. Hence "angel" here with Stephen is understood to be the Angel of the Presence, the Eternal Logos of the Father, the Angel of Jehovah.
