To further understand the quality of the עדות component within every מצוה, the רבי contrasts it with the חוקים element:

Although חוקים - engravement - signifies כתר, Hashem's Desire on such a level is to negate human logic, and thus cannot be a representation of his Essential Desire. Specifically עדות represent the core connection of the essence of a איד with the Essence of Hashem.
