Question...

This is a question in our ladies study of Hosea. "Describe why God chose to speak to his people through prophets" The verses given are Exodus 20:18-19, Deuteronomy 18:14-22.

The best I can surmise from these verses alone is that the people were too scared to have God speak with them directly. But this seems a poor rendering to me...there has to be more (meaning I also feel these verses don't fully answer the question).

Help?
