Deuteronomy 6:4 to Deuteronomy 11:32 . General precepts resting upon the doctrine that Yahweh is the only true God. Deuteronomy 6:4-1 Samuel : . Called by Jews the Shema from the first word—“ Hear.” The Shema, with other words from Scripture, is written on the parchment in the two phylacteries and in the door mezuzah, but that Deuteronomy 6:8 f. had no reference to such practices is evident from the context and from Exodus 13:9-Nehemiah :, Proverbs 1:9; Proverbs 3:3; Proverbs 6:21 where... read more

Now he shows another spring or principle of sincere obedience to God, even hearty love to God, which will make his work and service easy; and that the fear he mentioned before, Deuteronomy 6:2, was such as would consist with love to God, and not that slavish fear and honour which produceth hatred. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Deuteronomy 6:1-25

Sermon Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 6:4

Deuteronomy 6:4 (with Matthew 28:19 ) Observe: I. That the Scriptural Trinity implies that God is One. So far from being against the cardinal truth of God's unity, it actually assumes it. The Trinity of our faith means a distinction of persons within one common indivisible Divine nature. If we ask, What is the chief spiritual benefit which we derive from the knowledge of the unity of God? the answer is this: The unity of God is the only religious basis for a moral law of perfect and... read more

Chapter 6So in chapter six:NOW these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that you might do them in the land whither you go to possess it: That you may fear the LORD thy God, and to keep all of his statutes and commandments, which I command you.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Deuteronomy 6:1-25

Deuteronomy 6:4 . יהוה אלהינו יהוה אחד , Jehovah our Elohim is one Jehovah. There is uniformly an elision of the letter ם mem, when the plural is associated with the noun; and the י yod is not used in the paradigm of Hebrew verbs to designate the plural noun. The name of the Divinity being here used three times, as in Psalms 33:6, Isaiah 49, 63., and the central name or noun, Elohinu, being in the plural number, indicates to us that mysterious sociality in the Trinity in unity, known... read more

Deuteronomy 6:2-4Thou shalt smite them and utterly destroy them.Wars of the IsraelitesThere is, perhaps, no point on which the weakness of human nature is more clearly shown than in the difficulty of treading the right path between persecution on the one hand, and indifference to evil on the other. For although we are, it may be, disposed according to our several tempers more to one of these faults than to the other, yet I fear it is true also that none of us are free from the danger of falling... read more
