قرآن حکیم (شرح آیات منتخب)

شیوةٌ سخن گفتن خدا با موسی(ع)

از یات متعددی استفاده می‌شود که خداوند با موسی(ع) سخن گفت و این سخن گفتن از طریق خلق امواج صوتی در فضا یا اجسام بود که گاهی این امواج صوتی از لابه‌لای شجرةٌ وادی ایمن و گاهی در کوه طور به گوش موسی می‌رسید. این کلام به‌گونه‌ای بود که موسی یقین داشته از طرف خداوند و برای سخن گفتن با او است. این علم برای موسی, یا از طریق وحی و الهام حاصل شده بود یا از قراین دیگر.
