4Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: 5And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
In the book of Deuteronomy, Moses addresses the Israelites as they prepare to enter the Promised Land. He imparts teachings to guide them in their new life. Moses speaks directly to the people, declaring, "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD." He stresses the uniqueness of their God, urging them to love the LORD with all their heart, soul, and might. This commandment is central to their covenantal relationship with God and is meant to shape their identity and daily living in the land they are about to inherit.
