- Ezekiel 1:24
When the creatures moved, I heard the sound of their wings like the roar of many waters, like the voice of the Almighty, like the tumult of an army. When they stood still, they lowered their wings.
Commentary on Ezekiel 1:242 voices
But while the animals were standing, their wings were lowered. For they could not bear the resonating voice of Almighty God in the heavens, but they stood and marveled; and with their silence, they demonstrated the power of God, who sat upon the firmament.
Jerome· Commentary on EzekielPatristic
"And I heard the sound of their wings, as the sound of many waters." In sacred speech, peoples are customarily designated by waters. Hence it is said through John: "The waters are peoples." Peoples are designated by waters for this reason: because in life they have sound from the tumult of the flesh, and daily they flow away through the course of mortality. As we have now often said, the wings of the living creatures are the virtues of the saints.

- Ezekiel 1:28
The appearance of the brilliant light all around Him was like that of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell facedown and heard a voice speaking.
- Ezekiel 10:5
The sound of the wings of the cherubim could be heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty when He speaks.
- John 5:37
And the Father who sent Me has Himself testified about Me. You have never heard His voice nor seen His form,
Commentary on John 5:371 voice
The Father himself ...hath borne witness of me - This God had done, 1. By the miracles which Jesus had performed, and of which he was conversing. 2. At the baptism of Jesus, where he said, “This is my beloved Son,” Mat 3:17. 3. In the prophecies of the Old Testament. It is not easy to say here to which of these he refers. Perhaps he has reference to all. Ye have neither heard his voice - This difficult passage has been interpreted in various ways.

- John 12:28–30
Father, glorify Your name!” Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”
Commentary on John 12:28–302 voices
There came therefore a voice out of heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. The Evangelist did not say that it was the Father Who uttered the voice from above, but that the voice came from heaven; in order that no heretics, because they heard that the Father spake, might attempt to say that also the Divine Nature, to wit, the Father, is encompassed with a gross body. Wherefore he speaks indeed of the harmonious voice, but how the voice was brought to pass it is not in our power to say.
Cyril of Alexandria· Commentary on the Gospel of John, Book 8Patristic
Father, glorify thy name,.... The perfections of his nature, particularly his justice and holiness, meaning in himself; by his sufferings and death; intimating hereby, that his Father's glory was what he had in view, and that the securing of that would give him an infinite pleasure amidst all his sorrows. The Arabic version, and Nonnus, read "glorify thy Son", as in Joh 17:1, and the Ethiopic version takes in both, "glorify thy name, and thy Son": and indeed, what glorifies the one, glorifies the other; see Joh 13:

- Acts 7:31
When Moses saw it, he marveled at the sight. As he approached to look more closely, the voice of the Lord came to him:
Commentary on Acts 7:312 voices
And as he came near to observe, the voice of the Lord came: I am the God of your fathers. In the Greek it is written thus: A voice came from heaven saying to him: I am the God of your brothers, remove the sandals …
Bede· Retractions on ActsPatristic
He wondered ... - What particularly attracted his attention was the fact that the bush was not consumed, Exo 3:2-3. The voice of the Lord - Yahweh spake to him from the midst of the bush. He did not see him. He merely heard a voice.
Albert Barnes· Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)Evangelical
- Acts 9:4
He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?”
Commentary on Acts 9:42 voices
For it is written, "And when all things are made subject to him, then the Son himself will also be made subject to him who subjected all things to him." Do you not fear, O man, the God who is called unsubjected? For he makes your subjection his own, and, because of your struggle against virtue, he calls himself unsubjected. Thus, he even said at one time that he himself was the one persecuted; for he says, "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?" when Saul was hastening to Damascus, desiring to put in bonds the disciples of Christ.
Basil of Caesarea· LETTER 8Patristic
And he fell to the earth - Being struck down with the lightning: many persons suppose he was on horseback, and painters thus represent him; but this is utterly without foundation. Painters are, in almost every case, wretched commentators.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the BibleEvangelical
- Acts 9:7
The men traveling with Saul stood there speechless. They heard the voice but did not see anyone.
Commentary on Acts 9:71 voice
"And the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice but seeing no one." The light shines upon all who were with him, so that they might bear witness to this apparition, but it blinds not all of them, but only Paul alone, …
Theophylact of Ohrid· Commentary on ActsPatristic
- Acts 26:14
We all fell to the ground, and I heard a voice say to me in Hebrew, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’
Commentary on Acts 26:141 voice
And when we were all fallen to the earth,.... Saul, and the men that were with him, for fear of the divine Majesty, who by this extraordinary light was thought to be present: the other narratives only relate Saul's falling to the earth; how this is to be reconciled to their standing speechless, in Act 9:7; see Gill on Act 9:7. I heard a voice speaking unto me, &c. See Gill on Act 10:4. See Gill on Act 10:5.

- Acts 26:15
‘Who are You, Lord?’ I asked. ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,’ the Lord replied.
Commentary on Acts 26:151 voice
And I said, who art thou, Lord? and he said,.... Or "the Lord said", as the Alexandrian copy, the Vulgate Latin, and Syriac versions read, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest; the Syriac and Ethiopic versions read, "Jesus of Nazareth"; See Gill on Act 9:5.
