Skeptics may be motivated by the fact that it is the only bush of its kind in the whole of the peninsula, and by the failure of all efforts to expand out there.

When Helena's chapel, behind the apse of the church of Saint Catherine, was built, the bush was moved to its current site. It remains one of the most significant attractions for Christian pilgrimages in the Sinai region.

The angel of the Lord is described as shown in a bush, and God is then described as calling out from it to Moses, who had been grazing Jethro's flocks there.

When Moses started to the path, God tell Moses to take off his sandals first, due to the place being holy ground, and Moses hides his face.
