I think it is fascinating to see God reveal himself as &#8216;One&#8217; or &#8216;The only one&#8217; in a time where every people had its own god (see Deut 32:8). Declaring this &#8216;Shema&#8217;, the jewish people committed themselves to YHWH, confessing his sovereignty.<br \/>It is even more fascinating to read in the New Testament that this declaration was still not &#8216;good enough&#8217; to enter into the Kingdom of God: Jesus says in Marc 12:34 (following a conversation about the Shema) that the teacher of the law is &#8216;not far from the Kingdom&#8217;. In the next verses he reveals the key to this: the Messiah, exalted to the highest place, with all his enemies below his feet.<\/p>\n<p>Read the outline <a href=\"https:\/\/boerenroem.nl\/wordpress\/doc\/Shema.ppt\">here<\/a> (Powerpoint, in Dutch, 64Kb).
