4 Μη καμης εις σεαυτον ειδωλον, μηδε ομοιωμα τινος, οσα ειναι εν τω ουρανω ανω, η οσα εν τη γη κατω, οσα εν τοις υδασιν υποκατω της γης·

8929. 'And Jehovah said to Moses' means further instruction. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying' as instruction; for 'saying' includes what follows it, in this instance instruction, as also elsewhere, 6879, 6881, 6883, 6891, 7186, 7267, 7304, 7380, 8127.

7380. 'And Jehovah said to Moses' means instruction. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying' as instruction, dealt with in 7186, 7304. What is meant by the verb 'say' when used in the historical narratives of the Word is evident from what comes after it, for whatever follows goes together with it. The reason why at this point it means instruction is that Jehovah says what further things had to be done. Also 'Moses' represents the law of God, through which instruction is given by Jehovah.
