The Shema prayer is arguably the most well-known prayer of them all. It is the first words that we teach our children, and the last ones uttered by a Jew in their tenure in this world. A Jewish life is bookended by recitations of the Shema. Yet it seems to me that while people are familiar with the Shema, they are somewhat uninformed of its vast powers and deep meanings. In this podcast, we explore a novel way to understand the overall message of the Shema, and the critical importance that bears on our life as Jews.
