Comments: Vitex agnus-castus is a beautiful Mediterranean shrub (sometimes also a small tree up to a few meters tall), not very common but also not a rare plant. It can be found all around Mediterranean Sea along sea shore but also inside the country along rivers and lake shores.

Abraham's Bush or Blackberry. Vitex agnus-castus, Rubus sanctus or Loranthus acaciae. סנה səneh - Strongs: H5572.
From Easton: Bush - in which Jehovah appeared to Moses in the wilderness (Exodus 3:2; Acts 7:30). It is difficult to say what particular kind of plant or bush is here meant. Probably it was the mimosa or acacia. The words "in the bush" in Mark 12:26; Luke 20:37, mean "in the passage or paragraph on the bush;" i.e., in Exodus 3:0.
Verses:
- Exodus 3:2
- Exodus 3:3
