# General Information:
Moses continues to speak to the people of Israel. He speaks as though they were one man, so all instances of "you" and "your" are singular. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-you]])
# But from there
"But when you are in those other nations"
# you will seek
The word "you" here is plural. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-you]])
# when you search after him
"when you really try to find him" or "when you really try to know him"
# with all your heart and with all your soul
Here "heart" and "soul" are metonyms for a person's inner being. These two phrases are used together to mean "completely" or "earnestly." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-doublet]])
