Please explain Rashi Alef כָּל־הַדְּבָרִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה

The word כָּל is extra. Hashem said the עשרת הדברות in one utterance. Why does it say all the things (עשרת הדברות) if He said it at one time? 

It says כָּל־הַדְּבָרִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה because even though Hashem said the עשרת הדברות in one utterance he repeated each one separately afterwards to explain each one.

Please explain Rashi Gimmel-

לא יהיה לך

 

לא יהיה לך- Why does it say do not own (have) idols if in the next Passuk it says you cant make idols?

A person may understand they cant make an idol but they may think its fine to have an idol in their house that’s already made. Therefore the Torah tells us לֹא⁠ יִהְיֶה⁠ לְךָ you shall not own/ posses

A-When Shabbos comes  It should be in your eyes As if all your work is done You shall not think about your work.
