"I mean, this prayer came about when Moses received the Torah and he was saying to the jewish people, Shema Yisrael, Adonai Eloheinu, Adonai Achad, he was telling the people to listen, the Lord is our God, the Lord is one. Because especially back then, a lot of people in the area were praying to idols and praying to golden calves, etcetera, etcetera. So it's come a long way."
