So I have a whole chapter in Imagine the God of Heaven. And I am trying to show that, because what I found fascinating is people I've interviewed who had no prior understanding of the triune nature of God, which let me just say that the word Trinity is not in the Bible, okay?

So even then, and I think that's when it says the angel of the Lord, many times I think this is the pre-incarnate Jesus, the third person of the Trinity. But there's not the word Trinity. But the idea is there. So again, to Moses, goes up on Mount Sinai, And sees this, he calls it this burning bush, okay? So, it's a brilliant light that doesn't burn the bush.

Jesus then, I think in the same passage, is it John 8 that you just quoted? Yeah, I think so, yeah. He says, before Abraham was born, okay? Abraham was the father of the Jewish nation, right?

And they pick up stones to stone him because they understood exactly what he was claiming.
