Bible Note: What makes you think that the voice wasn't that of God Himself? Exodus 3:4 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I. The word Lord is from the Hebrew Yehovah and the word God is the Hebrew word Elohiym. The word malak, which is the Hebrew word for angel isn’t even mentioned in this verse as you would suggest. You stated"an angel representing Jehovah spoke to him" CDBJ |
