Commentary:

to Aaron
Who was then in Egypt.

God's mountain
See note on Exodus 3:1, that this appears to indicate that Sinai was on a direct route between Egypt and Midian. However, God may have been angry with Moses for taking this indirect route through the southern Sinai (see note on Exodus 4:24).
