미가 1:2의 미드라쉬
שִׁמְעוּ֙ עַמִּ֣ים כֻּלָּ֔ם הַקְשִׁ֖יבִי אֶ֣רֶץ וּמְלֹאָ֑הּ וִיהִי֩ אֲדֹנָ֨י יְהוִ֤ה בָּכֶם֙ לְעֵ֔ד אֲדֹנָ֖י מֵהֵיכַ֥ל קָדְשֽׁוֹ׃
백성들아 너희는 다 들을지어다 땅과 거기 있는 모든 것들아 자세히 들을지어다 주 여호와께서 너희에게 대하여 증거하시되 곧 주께서 성전에서 그리하실 것이니라
Sifrei Devarim
Variantly: "Hear, O heavens, etc.": Moses appointed over Israel two witnesses (heaven and earth) that live forever, telling them: I am flesh and blood; tomorrow I will die. If they wish to say that they never received the Torah, who will come and refute them? Therefore, He appointed for them two witnesses that live forever. And the Holy One Blessed be He made this (Ha'azinu) song a witness, viz. (Devarim 31:19) "so that this song be for Me a witness in the children of Israel." He said: The sun will be witness for them below, and I, above. And whence is it derived that G-d is called "a swift witness"? From (Malachi 3:5) "And I will draw near to you in judgment, and I will be a swift witness," and (Jeremiah 29:23) "and I am the one who knows and bears witness," and (Michah 1:2) "and the L-rd G-d will be a witness against you."
