8425. 'And Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel' means instructions given by God's truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying', when it refers to the things Jehovah commanded those belonging to the spiritual Church, as instructions, dealt with also in 7769, 7793, 7825, 8041; from the representation of 'Moses and Aaron' as God's truth, 'Moses' inward truth and 'Aaron' outward truth, dealt with in 7009, 7089, 7382; and from the representation of 'the children of Israel' as those who belong to the spiritual church, dealt with in 6426, 6637, 6862, 6868, 7035, 7062, 7198, 7201, 7215, 7223.

8041. 'And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying' means instructions given by the Divine. This is clear from the meaning of 'speaking' and 'saying', when Jehovah talks about things of the Church that are to be observed, as instructions, dealt with in 7769, 7793, 7825, and - since Jehovah is the speaker - as instructions given by the Divine; and from the representation of 'Moses' as God's truth, dealt with in 6771, 7014, 7382. So it is that 'Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying' means instructions given by the Divine through Divine Truth.
