“Behold, I am setting before you.” He begins with singular form [in Hebrew] and ends in plural form. Also, we should understand the meaning of “Behold,” as in “seeing.”
Singular form means that each one should be rewarded with seeing, as in, “And you shall love the Lord your God,” singular form. This speaks to the whole of Israel, meaning that each individual in the collective must be rewarded with the discernment, “the Lord your God,” in singular form. That is, one should not rely on the other, but each one must be a foundation, and on this foundation he builds all of his servitude.
Also, a person must be rewarded with seeing, as our sages said, that when a person says, “were completed,” he testifies to the work of creation.
We should understand, 1) This testimony, for whom must he testifies, 2) Testimony is only by seeing, and not by hearing, so what evidence is it when he says “were complete”?
The testimony that one should make is that it is true that the work of creation that the Creator created was in order to do good to His creations. This is precisely when they were rewarded with seeing, meaning the light of Hochma. When this is revealed, he testifies to the work of creation, which is to do good to His creations. This is regarded as Shabbat [Sabbath], the end of the work, when the goal—to do good to His creations—is revealed. This is called “Who rested from all His work,” since the goal has been revealed.
