It is Almighty God that said it to Moses. It can be made no clearer by God Himself when he says I talked to Moses face to face as a man talketh to a friend. You cannot wiggle out of that.
You have bolded "for there shall no man see me, and live."
So what do you say about Jacob seeing God, nay, wrestling with God and his life was preserved, and if you do not understand what "and my life was preserved" means, it means he saw God and lived.
Genesis 32:30 King James Version (KJV)
30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.
There seems to be some confusion here, can you explain it to me?
There is no need to "wiggle."
You can not wiggle out of this:
Exo_33:23 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts:
but my face shall not be seen.
Num_14:14 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for they have heard that thou LORD art among this people,
that thou LORD art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.
Do you know how many references to the faces of God there are? Many! Around 70. Numbers 14:14 states that all the people see His face. Then it also clearly states that He is in a cloud and in a pillar of fire. He is never seen without some sort of veil.
You refuse knowing the reality of what this says because it makes JS a liar---that is what you can't handle and have to refuse to acknowledge that no man can see His face and live--unless they are in heaven themselves. JS never saw God--no sinner can. No mortal can. We must be resurrected unto immortality and be glorified before we are able to see Him.
Exo_19:9 And the LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people unto the LORD.
Exo_24:15 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
Exo_24:16 And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
Exo_24:18 And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.
Exo_40:35 And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
Lev_16:2 And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times into the holy place within the vail before the mercy seat, which is upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat.
Num_16:42 And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.
1Co_10:2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
It us one of the oldest greetings:
Num 6:25 The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
