DEUTERONOMY 6

LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, SOUL, + MIGHT

Moses shares the greatest commandment with the Israelites—to love God with all their heart, all their soul, and all their might. Moses encourages the Israelites to only worship God and pass down their faith to the next generation.

When Jesus is tempted in the wilderness, He quotes Deuteronomy 6:13 and 6:16 as a response to the devil’s attack of God’s protection over Jesus (Matthew 4).

This passage includes the Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4), a key statement of God’s unique oneness that remains central to Jewish prayer to this day.
