Exegesis
The relative clause kekol asher tsivvah YHWH et mosheh {כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהוָה אֶת־מֹשֶׁה | kə-kōl ă-šer ṣî-vāh Yə-hō-wāh ʾet mō-šēh} ‘according to all that the LORD commanded Moses’ situates the deed within a covenantal legal framework. In English translation, the repeated verb idiom is preserved to maintain theological emphasis, and the construct chains are rendered in parallel order to reflect Hebrew rhetorical balance.
