Shema – Listen
Is hearing and listening the same thing? In this video, discover how sound entering your ear-drums isn’t synonymous with “listening”, at least from a biblical perspective. This video is the first installment of our Word Studies series, a six-part exploration of the ancient biblical prayer called “The Shema.”
#Shema #BibleProject #BibleVideo
Man when I tell you I am being transformed by God through these study materials. I use this as a form of cross study when meditating on the word and doing my devotionals. This helps make it easier to apply the word to my life. Thanks to the Bible project I can WALK IN IT. God is so good. Thank you all again!
Shema = "Give heed"
~My voice is soft that only recollected souls can hear it~ Jesus to St. Maria Faustina Kowalska Diary of St. Faustina
I was singing in the spirit and suddenly I sang the word shema repeatedly….not knowing its meaning. It calms my soul immediately. Thank you so much for this video now I understand what it means❤❤❤❤
Great video
Cool video!
This is awesome and timely! All the best for your project!
Wow ❤
God bless you for the beautiful work you’re doing ❤
i often listen to audio bible in my daily devotion. i realise that often i do not pay attention and get distracted easily – thanks for this explanation of shema – i need to hear, listen attentively, understand and take action on what i hear.
SO important every day, but in 2023-24, maybe even MORE so…in the USA & Israel & all over the world. Thank you for this video.
2025 – just seeing this wonderful video. Well done, brothers❣️
The Lord be praised!! Wonderfully explained!

Not “lord” but YHWH is your Elohim/God.
In John 3:36, this is applied again. The word "obey" actually has the same meaning as "to hear." So, upon hearing the Gospel and believing it, one crosses from death over to life and stands outside condemnation. This verse has been misinterpreted as emphasizing keeping commands unto salvation. One is either IN Christ through belief / faith or not. It’s really that simple.

This is my petition for my husband Shimon to let us name our baby Shema.
The motto of the Christian school I attended was "to hear is to obey" – that’s some pretty solid theology.
Excellent. Thank you!!!!
Bro love to make this available for other languages as well. or you might already have or work in progress i dont know. but love to know and love to do it together if you guys want.
That is wholesome!
I will listen and obey God.
Shema!!!
Very helpful, take you very much
Jesus is coming back soon. Repent and turn away from sin while there’s still time!!!
well made vid, but the emphasis is on "eh-khahd" – ONE , so by definition the start in central prayer of Judaism is – "Hear, Listen, Obey O Israel, the L-rd is our G‑d, the L-rd is One "eh-khahd". And this means that there is no one beside HASHEM no one ever — שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ יְהוָה אֶחָד׃
Will you please do a video on SELAH? Thank you for these amazing videos. I’ve learned more today than almost my entire walk with Jesus. God bless. SOLI DEO GLORIA!
I love that the videos on the BibleProject are animated in a 1×1 ratio so they can easily fit into any vertical or horizontal screen, and so it’s easier on the animators 🙂

I’ve always thought of ‘Obey’ as doing, not listening. This sheds some helpful light on the topic.
It is so cool that there is no no obey, that it is all one Shema. Just as Yahway is one we demonstrate it in the action of keeping his instructions. Ears that hear or Shema Shema. -Gentile who loves Yah and his instructions.
help us to listen to You Lord and You alone!
Thank you for your ministry. The whole world needs this!
what the sigma yall yapping about
