Voice:

"a sound," is used of the voice

(a) of God, Mat 3:17; Jhn 5:37; 12:28, 30; Act 7:31; 10:13, 15; 11:7, 9; Hbr 3:7, 15; 4:7; 12:19, 26; 2Pe 1:17, 18; Rev 18:4; 21:3;

(b) of Christ,

(1) in the days of His flesh, Mat 12:19 (negatively); Jhn 3:29; 5:25; 10:3, 4, 16, 27; 11:43; 18:37;

(2) on the Cross, Mat 27:46, and parallel passages;

(3) from heaven, Act 9:4, 7; 22:7, 9, 14; 26:14; Rev 1:10, 12 (here, by metonymy, of the speaker), Rev 1:15; 3:20;

(4) at the resurrection "to life," Jhn 5:28; 1Th 4:16, where "the voice of the archangel" is, lit., "a voice of an archangel," and probably refers to the Lord's voice as being of an archangelic character;

(5) at the resurrection to judgment, Jhn 5:28 [not the same event as (4)];

(c) of human beings on earth, e.g., Mat 2:18; 3:3; Luk 1:42, in some texts, AV, "voice," and frequently in the Synoptists;

(d) of angels, Rev 5:11, and frequently in the Apocalypse;

(e) of the redeemed in heaven, e.g., Rev 6:10; 18:22; 19:1, 5;

(f) of a pagan god, Act 12:22;

(g) of things, e.g., wind, Jhn 3:8, RV, "voice" (AV, "sound").
See SOUND.

Notes:

(1) In Luk 1:42 (1st part), AV, anaphoneo, "to lift up one's voice," is rendered "spake out," RV, "lifted up (her) voice."

(2) In Act 26:10, AV, "I gave my voice" (RV, "... vote"): see STONE, No. 2.
