One would think that the very first topic Moshe discusses in his historic farewell speech would be a foundational one.  One that applies to the entire Jewish people.  One that galvanizes every individual to remain spiritually robust while in their new land.  Yet Moshe talks about Judges and Leaders being fair and patient.  Why did he start with that?  Why start with something that applies to less than one percent of the Jewish populace?  The answer might surprise you.
