General Information:

Moses continues to speak to the people of Israel. This chapter repeats the material of Exodus 20. It is known as the Ten Commandments.

called to all Israel

Here "all" is a generalization. Moses wanted everyone in Israel to hear and obey his words, but his voice was probably not so loud that everyone actually heard him.

that I will speak in your ears today

"that I will speak to you today". Here "ears" refers to the whole person. This emphasizes that the people know what Moses has said to them, so they cannot sin and then say they did not know they were sinning.
