What is the sh'ma?
She ma Israel (or Sham Israel) (Hebrew: S's S's; "Hear, [O] Israel") are the first two words of a section of the Torah, and are the title (sometimes shortened to simply "Shem) of a prayer that serves as a centerpiece of the morning and evening Jewish prayer services. The first verse encapsulates the monotheistic essence of Judaism: "Hear, O Israel: the LORD is our God, the LORD is one," found in Deuteronomy 6:4. Observant Jews consider the She ma to be the most important part of the prayer service in Judaism, and its twiddly recitation as a Mitzi (religious commandment). It is traditional for Jews to say the She ma as their last words, and for parents to teach their children to say it before they go to sleep at night. The term "Shem's" is used by extension to refer to the whole part of the daily prayers that commence with She ma Israel and comprise Deuteronomy 6:4--9, 11:13-21, and Numbers 15:37--41. These sections of the Torah are read in the weekly Torah portions Buchanan, Kiev, and Shelagh's, respectively.
