- Knowing of Hashem’s constant presence brings fear and acceptance of the yoke:
- Hashem Nitzav Alav: Behold, Hashem stands over a person as He fills the entire earth with His glory.
- G-d observes and judges one’s actions and feelings: Hashem contemplates the actions of the person as well as his thoughts and heart if he is serving Him properly.
- Serving G-d with this in mind: For this reason, one needs to serve Hashem with awe and fear like one who is standing before the king.
- Contemplating the above before Torah and Mitzvah performance: One is to ponder deeply into this matter and spend a lengthy amount of time on it as his mind and intellect is capable of doing, and as time permits, prior to learning Torah and performing Mitzvahs. Such as, prior to wearing the Tallis or Tefillin, he is to contemplate this matter and arouse a fear of G-d.
