The LORD said to Moses
The LORD
This phrase refers to Yahweh, the covenant name of God revealed to Moses at the burning bush (Exodus 3:14). In Hebrew, it is represented by the Tetragrammaton YHWH, which signifies God's eternal, self-existent nature. The use of "The LORD" emphasizes God's authority and His personal relationship with Israel. It is a reminder of His faithfulness and the promises He made to the patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. In the context of Numbers, it underscores God's direct involvement and guidance in the lives of His people.

said
The Hebrew word for "said" is "אָמַר" (amar), which is a common verb used throughout the Old Testament to denote speech or communication. This word indicates not just the act of speaking but also the authority and intention behind the words. In the context of divine communication, it signifies the importance and reliability of the message being conveyed. God's words are not mere suggestions; they are commands and revelations that carry weight and purpose.

to Moses
Moses is a central figure in the Pentateuch, serving as the leader, prophet, and mediator between God and the Israelites. His name in Hebrew, "מֹשֶׁה" (Moshe), is believed to mean "drawn out," reflecting his rescue from the Nile River as an infant (Exodus 2:10). Moses' role is pivotal as he receives the law, guides the people through the wilderness, and intercedes on their behalf. In this verse, the mention of Moses highlights his unique position as the chosen instrument through whom God communicates His will to the nation of Israel. Moses' obedience and faithfulness are exemplary, serving as a model for leadership and devotion to God's commands.

Verse 4. - The Lord spake unto Moses. The Targum of Palestine here inserts the statement that Moses was not willing to receive them. He may very well have doubted whether God would sanction their use, as it had not been commanded; and it may be that some delay, perhaps of several days, occurred before he was able to accept them and to assign them to their future uses. In this, or some similar way, must be explained the apparent discrepancy of time.
