4 The Lord spoke to you face to face out of the fire on the mountain.
4 The Lord talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire,
4 The Lord spoke with you face to face at the mountain, out of the midst of the fire,
4 God spoke to you personally out of the fire on the mountain.
4 The Lord talked with you face to face on the mountain from the midst of the fire.
4 At the mountain the Lord spoke to you face to face from the heart of the fire.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Deuteronomy 5:4
Commentary on Deuteronomy 5:1-5
(Read Deuteronomy 5:1-5)
