Heb 8:6-12 says that at Sinai it is Jesus speaking.
let's see how that turns out to be the case --
4 For if He (Jesus) were on earth, He (Jesus) would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law; 5 who serve the copy and shadow of the heavenly things, as Moses was divinely instructed when he was about to make the tabernacle. For He (Jesus) said, “See that you make all things according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.” 6 But now He (Jesus) has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He (Jesus) is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises.
A New Covenant
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second. 8 Because finding fault with them, He (Jesus) says: “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I (Jesus) will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— 9 not according to the covenant that I (Jesus) made with their fathers in the day when I (Jesus) took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they did not continue in My (Jesus') covenant, and I (Jesus) disregarded them, says the Lord. 10 For this is the covenant that I (Jesus) will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I (Jesus) will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I (Jesus) will be their God, and they shall be My people. 11 None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them. 12 For I (Jesus) will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”
13 In that He (Jesus) says, “A new covenant,” He (Jesus) has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.
================= and so that adds light to Jer 31:31-33
31 “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord (Jesus), when I (Jesus) will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— 32 not according to the covenant that I (Jesus) made with their fathers in the day that I (Jesus) took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, though I (Jesus) was a husband to them, says the Lord (Jesus). 33 But this is the covenant that I (Jesus) will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I (Jesus) will put My (Jesus') law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I (Jesus) will be their God, and they shall be My (Jesus') people.
============ YHWH speaks at Sinai
Ex 20
Then God spoke all these words, saying,
2 “I am the LORD (YHWH) your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
3 “You shall have no other gods before Me.
4 “You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. 5 You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the LORD (YHWH) your God, am a jealous God,
9 Then they said to Moses, “Speak to us yourself and we will listen; but let not God speak to us, or we will die.” 20 Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid; for God has come in order to test you, and in order that the fear of Him may remain with you, so that you may not sin.” 21 So the people stood at a distance, while Moses approached the thick cloud where God was.
22 Then the LORD (YHWH) said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ‘You yourselves have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.
