It is now clear to us ²  that God can speak to human beings and they can keep on living. 5:25 But now, why should we die, because this intense fire will consume us! If we keep hearing the voice of the Lord our God we will die! 5:26 Who is there from the entire human race ³  who has heard the voice of the living God speaking from the middle of the fire as we have, and has lived?
