A. different meanings

In "After the fire a still small voice. -- 1 Kings 19:12," the word "voice" refers to a sound or a quiet form of communication coming from a divine presence. In this context, it represents spiritual guidance or a message from God.

In "The voice of the law," the word "voice" is used metaphorically to represent the authority and commands that come from a legal system or established rules. Here, it refers to the expression of rules and regulations in a figurative sense.

These two instances of the word "voice" have different meanings because they are used in different contexts and convey different ideas: one is spiritual communication while the other represents legal authority.
