Word Study: Shema
Mark 12:29–31 says that Jesus considered the Shema, the Jewish prayer to love and obey God at all times, to be the first of the two greatest commandments; the second one, loving your neighbor, was based on Leviticus 19:18b.
This Bible Project series of six 3-4 minutes studies of the key words in the Shema lends a deeper, more complete understanding of the prayer and it's significance.
