And the LORD
This phrase signifies the direct communication from God, emphasizing His authority and the divine origin of the instructions that follow. The Hebrew word for "LORD" here is "Yahweh," the sacred and personal name of God, which underscores His covenant relationship with Israel. This name is a reminder of God's eternal presence and faithfulness, as revealed to Moses at the burning bush (Exodus 3:14). In a conservative Christian perspective, this highlights the continuity of God's revelation and His unchanging nature.

said
The Hebrew verb "amar" is used here, which means "to say" or "to speak." This verb is often used in the context of divine revelation, indicating that what follows is not merely human instruction but a message from God Himself. This underscores the importance of the message and the need for obedience. In the broader biblical narrative, God's spoken word is powerful and creative, as seen in Genesis 1, where God speaks the world into existence.

to Moses
Moses is the chosen leader and prophet through whom God communicates His laws and guidance to the Israelites. His role as a mediator is crucial, as he stands between God and the people, receiving divine instructions and conveying them to the nation. Historically, Moses is a central figure in the Pentateuch, and his leadership is foundational for the identity and faith of Israel. From a conservative Christian viewpoint, Moses is also a type of Christ, foreshadowing the ultimate mediator between God and humanity, Jesus Christ (Hebrews 3:1-6).
