1 The Shema Bible Verse Your word is a lamp before my feet and a light for my journey. (Psalm 119:105) Session 9 August 2 Bible Story Deuteronomy 6:4-8 Leap of Faith I can learn and share God s Word. Before You Begin Deuteronomy 6:4-8 is called the Shema (shuh-mah). The word Shema means to hear and begins the most important prayer in Judaism. The whole Shema prayer is spoken daily in the Jewish tradition. The Shema is an affirmation of faith, stating that there is one and only one God. The Shema prayer was so influential and important that Jesus used it as the beginning of his answer to the greatest commandment question in Mark 12: Even today, Christians can look to the words of the Shema as a wonderful expression that the LORD is the one true God. As we acknowledge God s lordship, our response remains to hear and to love God with all our heart, soul, and might, and to love our neighbor as ourselves. When God said to write the words of the prayer on the doorposts of your house, the Jewish people took God literally. The prayer is written on a piece of parchment paper, rolled up, and placed into a protective case, called a mezuzah (muh-zoo-zuh). The mezuzah is attached to the upper third of the doorpost of the house s front door. It is tilted so that the top slants toward the house. When coming and going through the door, family members touch the mezuzah to show respect and to remember God s commands. Children who attend worship may be familiar with the expression affirmation of faith. Whether your church uses the traditional Apostles Creed or a different version, the congregation is stating what it believes about God, about Jesus, about the Holy Spirit, and about the church. In this Jewish affirmation, the people are stating their belief that there is only one God. This was particularly important because in the cultures surrounding them, many people had multiple gods. This statement truly set the Jewish people apart. This statement of faith also reminds us who is in charge.
