Bush, sea, mountain, calf, giants — five thresholds Moses had to cross.
Moses didn't arrive at the promised land in a straight line — he crossed five thresholds, and each one tested a different part of him. The bush asked if he'd answer. The sea asked if he'd trust. The mountain asked if he'd wait. The calf asked if he'd hold the line. The giants asked if he'd believe. His crossings mirror our own.
