The Body and Voice of God in the Hebrew Bible

Abstract

This article explores the role of the voice of God in the Hebrew Bible and in early Jew-ish interpretations such as the Targumim. In contrast to the question as to whether God has a body, which is enmeshed in theological debates concerning anthropomorphism and idolatry, the notion that God has a voice is less controversial but evidences some diachronic development.
