Numbers 29:40, word by word

Mosesמֹשֶׁהmoshe

Moses

Moses, the man God called to bring Israel out of Egypt and through whom he gave the Law. His name sounds like "draw out" (Exodus 2:10).

Where else “moshe” appears
toldיֹּאמֶרyomer

To say with the mouth to someone what one thinks or wants, or to answer him.

Where else “yomer” appears

A descendant or member of a people: "sons of Israel".

Where else “bene” appears
of Israelיִשְׂרָאֵלyisrael

Israel

Israel, the new name Jacob received from God, explained as "you have striven with God" (Genesis 32:28); then the name of the people that came from him and, after the division, of the northern kingdom.

Where else “yisrael” appears
YHWHיְהוָהyehva

YHWH

The personal name of the God of Israel, written in Hebrew with four letters, Y-H-W-H, without vowels. Out of reverence Jews stopped pronouncing it and read "Adonai" (Lord), so many Bibles put "the LORD" or "Jehovah". This translation keeps the four letters. The name is related to the verb "to be" (Exodus 3:14-15). He is not a god other than Elohim: "YHWH Elohim" is the same Creator God, called by his name.

Where else “yehva” appears
had commandedצִוָּהtsiva

command

To give an order: "as YHWH had commanded".

Where else “tsiva” appears

The context

39These you shall offer to YHWH at your appointed times, besides your vows and your freewill offerings, for your burnt offerings, and for your grain offerings, and for your libations, and for your peace offerings.”
