8729. 'A difficult matter they will bring to Moses' means mediation and intercession. This is clear from the explanation above in 8705. Here it says that they will bring the matter to Moses, there however that Moses will bring matters to God; but both statements embody the same meaning.

Before

In most cases, the meaning of "before" is pretty straightforward, both as a way of assessing relative time, and in its use meaning "in someone's presence." It takes on a deeper significance, though, when used in connection with the Lord. To be "before" the Lord means not just in His presence, but also receiving the desire for good and the understanding of truth from Him, and living according to them. And when used as an assessment of time in connection with the Lord, "before" means "from eternity," and refers to a spiritual state rather than time as we experience it.
