Exegesis
This is elaborated by the aorist middle participle phthen-gxamenon {φθεγξάμενον | phthen-gxá-me-non}, modified by the prepositional phrase en anthropou phōnē {ἐν ἀνθρώπου φωνῇ | en an-thrṓ-pou phō-nē}, yielding “having spoken with a man’s voice.”
In context — 2 Peter 2:16
But he received a rebuke for his own transgression; a mute beast of burden, speaking with the voice of a man, restrained the madness of the prophet .
