Questions where the Bible appears to say two different things, with the passages on each side set together.
Exodus 3:2 says "the angel of the LORD" appeared to Moses in the flame, and Acts 7:35 confirms it was an angel. But Exodus 3:4 in the same passage shifts and says "God called unto him out of the midst of the bush," and Mark 12:26 has Jesus himself affirm that God spoke to Moses at the bush.
