7638. 'And said to him' means discernment. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying' as discerning, dealt with in 1791, 1815, 1819, 1822, 1898, 1919, 2080, 2619, 2862, 3395, 3509, 5743, 5877. The reason why 'said' here means discerning is that by 'Moses and Aaron' God's truth is represented, 'going to' means its presence, and the presence of God's truth leads to discernment.
