The number one represents unity and completeness.
The Maharal[1] indicates that one:
1. Conveys “completeness”. Since 1 is not divisible, it has no parts and is intrinsically whole.
2. One may imply “unique”.
3. One may be used to describe that something is “foremost”, to which all else is mere adjunct.
