Then
The word "then" serves as a conjunction, linking the events that have just transpired with the divine instruction that follows. In the context of Leviticus 24, this word indicates a continuation of the narrative where a blasphemer has been brought before Moses. It underscores the immediacy and relevance of God's response to the situation at hand, emphasizing the importance of divine guidance in moments of crisis.

the LORD
The term "the LORD" is a translation of the Hebrew name Yahweh, the covenant name of God revealed to Moses at the burning bush (Exodus 3:14). This name signifies God's eternal, self-existent nature and His faithfulness to His promises. In the context of Leviticus, it highlights the authority and holiness of God, who is the ultimate lawgiver and judge. The use of this name reminds the Israelites of their unique relationship with God and their obligation to uphold His statutes.

said
The verb "said" indicates direct communication from God to Moses. In the Hebrew text, the word is "amar," which is often used to convey divine speech. This underscores the importance of the message that follows, as it is not merely human opinion but a direct command from God. It reflects the biblical theme of God speaking to His people through chosen leaders, emphasizing the need for obedience to His revealed will.

to Moses
Moses is the central human figure in the Pentateuch, serving as the mediator between God and the Israelites. His role as a prophet and leader is crucial, as he is the one through whom God communicates His laws and instructions. The mention of Moses here reinforces his authority and responsibility to convey God's commands to the people. It also highlights the continuity of God's revelation, as Moses consistently receives and transmits divine guidance throughout the wilderness journey.

(13) And the Lord spake unto Moses.--In none of these instances, however, is it stated how and where Moses made this appeal to God, whether he inquired by means of the Urim and Thummim, or otherwise. As God promised to reveal His will to Moses from the mercy-seat between the cherubim (Exodus 25:22), it is probable that the lawgiver received the Divine directions in the sanctuary.

Verses 13, 14. - Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; - lest the camp should become polluted by his death - and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head. The ceremony of laying on of hands in all cases set apart the person or thing on whom or on which they were laid for some special purpose. Its further signification was determined by the particular circumstances of the case. Here it probably returned back on the head of the blasphemer the guilt which otherwise would have adhered to the witnesses from the fact of their hearing his blasphemy, and appearing to acquiesce in it.
