Duties of the Heart
(3) He should put to heart the days during which he turned away from G-d, and did not care about His service, in spite of His continuous goodness towards him during then, as written: "For of old I broke your yoke, I tore open your yoke-bands, and you said, 'I will not pass'" (Yirmiya 2:20), the explanation of "I will not pass" is: "I will not take on Your service, and will not enter Your covenant", as if he said "I will not pass in Your covenant", similar to the matter "to pass you over the covenant of the L-rd your G-d" (Devarim 29:11).
