Summary: | Although the significance of the shema (Deut 6:4-5) has been noticed by many scholars, its connection with other texts of the Bible has not been explored thoroughly. The author pursues how the shema is reflected in the story of Samuel (1 Samuel 1-15). In addition to 1 Sam 15:22, a famous verse on the shema, three more points will be demonstrated. They are the usage of “with all your heart”; YHWH is One; and the law of ḥerem. The existence of such a connection points to the conclusion that the story of Samuel reflects the shema theology of Deuteronomy 6:4-5. |
