In the 2nd blessing before the Shema we sing of
G-ds everlasting love for us. G-d shows love
for us by giving us the guidance of teachings and
commandments.

After proclaiming that there is one G-d in the
words of the Shema we continue with the
commandment to love G-d and guidance on how to
fulfill this commandment. We show our love for
G-d by teaching Torah to our children, speaking
words of Torah night and day, when at home and
when away. We show our love for G-d by wearing
tefillin and putting mezzuzot on the doors of
our homes.

In the first blessing after the Shema, we sing
the song that the children of Israel sang when

redeemer.

In the second blessing after the Shema, we pray
to G-d to spread his tabernacle of peace over us,
our people and the city of Jerusalem.

covenant between G-d and G-ds people.

We magnify and sanctify G-ds name in the
Kaddish. This prayer serves as a divider between
the Shema and its blessings and the Amida.

Words from the Book of Genesis that remind us of
the creation of the world. In six days G-d
created the world and on the seventh day G-d
rested. We too, work for six days and on the
special day of Shabbat we reflect upon all that
we have made and all the G-d has made.

We recognize our responsibility to stand before
G-d and praise G-ds name. We hope that someday
soon all will come to understand that there is
just one G-d and to that G-d our knee must bend.

In the words of the prophet Zacharia It will
come to pass that one day G-d will reign over all
the earth. On that day G-d will be one and G-ds
name will be one.

master of the world who was, who is, and who will
be. When G-d is with me I have no fear.
