The Last Two Mitzvahs

There are 248 “do this” mitzvahs in the Torah (and 365 “don’t do this” mitzvahs).

Counting in chronological order, number 247, the second-to-last mitzvah that Moses delivers to the Jewish people, is the mitzvah of Hakhel: Assemble the people once in seven years and relive the giving of the Torah.

What is it about this particular mitzvah that requires it be given on the last day of Moses’ life?
