What is the name of the ancient Jewish liturgical prayer?
Which one? There are lots of them. The Amidah (the standing prayer) is the central prayer of every Jewish service. It is clearly ancient. The various Kaddishes that punctuate organized Jewish worship, serving as doxologies, are ancient. The Shema (Hear oh Israel ...) is even more ancient, as is the Baruch Shem Kavod (Praise the Holy Name) response to the Shema. Another candidate is the Priestly Benediction (May the Lord bless you and keep you ...).

What does the Hebrew word shma mean and what does the prayer remind us to do?
The Hebrew word sh'ma means to hear and to understand. The Shema-prayer (Deuteronomy 6:4-9) reminds us that God is One; to love Him; to remember, speak, learn and teach the Torah; to educate our children in Judaism at at all times; and to keep the commandments of tefillin and mezuzah.What are tefillin? Tefillin (תפילין in Hebrew) are called phylacteries in English.They are two small leather boxes, each containing four passages from the Hebrew Scriptures on parchment; traditionally worn (on the forehead and the left arm) by Jewish men during weekday morning prayer, as commanded by the Torah (Deuteronomy 6).What is a mezuzah? The mezuzah is a small rectangular container which holds a parchment inscribed with the portion from Scriptures called the Shema: "Hear, O Israel..." (Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and 11:13-21) which reminds Jews that we are answerable to God, that we are to love Him and keep His commandments, and to be diligent to teach our children His ways. As we come into the home, we have this reminder before us (usually on the right-hand side as one enters). Etymologically, the word "mezuzot" means the doorposts, but the term has come to be used for the container with the parchment which is affixed to the doorpost.
