Deuteronomy 5:4-5 Face to Face

 4The Lord talked with you face to face on the mountain from the midst of the fire. 5I stood between the Lord and you at that time, to declare to you the word of the Lord; for you were afraid because of the fire, and you did not go up the mountain. He said:


Face to Face

“This is why Exodus 33:11 says So the LORD spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend, and in Exodus 33:20 the LORD says, You cannot see My face; for no man shall see Me, and live. The use of face to face in Exodus 33:11 is a figure of speech, meaning Moses had free and unhindered communication with the LORD.” (Guzik)


Face to face seems to mean ‘in person,’ that is, in the immediacy of personal contact.” (Thompson)


Reminds me of a song, enjoy.
