Exegesis
The main clause uses צִוָּ֣ה אֹתִ֗י {צִוָּה אֹתִי | ṣiwwāh ʾōtî} with an implied divine subject, while the prepositional phrase בִּדְבַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ {בִּדְבַר יְהוָה | biḏbar Yə-hō-wāh} specifies the means and source: the command comes “through the word” associated with the LORD, highlighting prophetic mediation.
In context — 1 Kings 13:9
For thus it was commanded to me by the word of the LORD , saying: “You shall not eat bread , and you shall not drink water, and you shall not return by the way which you went.”
