The crowd standing there heard it and said it had thundered; others said an angel had spoken to him — the crowd's interpretation of the heavenly voice varies: some hear it as thunder (a natural phenomenon), others perceive it as an angelic word. This variation in perception reflects the divided responses to Jesus throughout John's Gospel: some perceive divine truth; others hear only natural or supernatural phenomena without grasping the message.
