What does it mean to love God "with all of your strength"? In this final installment of our videos on the Shema, we explore the Hebrew word underneath this phrase. And spoiler alert: "strength" is only one of many ways this rich word could be translated.

I can’t articulate how well done these videos are. I’m staggered by the Spirit-induced creativity of this team. The visuals are beautiful, relevant, and sound. The scholarly work behind the visuals is robust. Thank you for these videos. I use them all the time to teach kids, youth, young adults, and to be refreshed in my own study of the Word and pursuit of God. Thank you for obeying a call from God. I know much sacrifice has been made to make these. You’re making a significant impact.

@SomeoneBeginingWithI 6 лет назад

If we translate Me'od as "muchness" or "very-ness" could we say that it means to love God in all the ways that we are "very". That would mean if you were very wealthy, you would love God with all of your wealth If you were very clever, you would love God with all of your mind That would mean whatever talents /you/ have in particular should be used to love God. I think this would tie in quite nicely with the passage (I think it is in Corinthians) about the church as a body with different organs (people) each with different abilities and purposes, but together serving the one purpose of loving God.

majed h Islam is false. Please check out the video "the Islamic Dilemma" by David Wood. Organised christianity is false too, though. True christianity is not a religion, but a relationship with Jesus Christ. He is the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, but through Jesus(John 14:6). Please check out the RU-vid channels "A Voice In The Desert" and "The Total Victory of Christ" to get a better picture of what Jesus really taught/ the Bible really teaches. I also recommend the websites "hell-is-a-myth", "mercifultruth" and "tentmaker", they cover the true teaching of the salvation of all mankind and expose the false teaching of hell.

@kanzaluyano 6 лет назад

It's clearly understandable why Me'od was translated in greek as Dunamis. I remember when I meditated on this, I understood it literally as strength, and in that I understood that it is to love God with all I have, physically (when of course able to do so) and mentally. I am glad that I saw this, cause I now find an agreement between the shemah and what Paul says that we are to present our bodies as a living sacrifice. That with all that we are and possess, should be devoted to loving God! Please join all the word study videos of the Shemah into one,vif you already have that planned, it'd be awesome to show someone who sees this for the first time! God bless you all!

@priestpulpit5577 6 лет назад

Andrew Kibler cool. I’d Love to hear your thoughts. In my observation of the Bible, I feel fasting is meant in a literal and symbolic manner. :)

@ellenhenderson6865 6 лет назад

Can you do a podcast on Fasting? And how Jesus used it to worship?

@drooskie9525 6 лет назад

+casey priest I wrote quite a bit on it on another site, as a comment to some other person. I'll paste it here. """What you think fasting is, is not what a fast actually is. People always talk about the fast Daniel went on. “Oh, I need to go on the fast to hear God, seek him, know his will for my life, get blessed, get closer to God” yada yada yada, you get the idea… but that is not the truth. There is 2 kinds of interpretations, carnal and spiritual. We, unfortunately, often without second-guessing, take the carnal meaning out of everything and define it that way. For example; If I look at the Sabbath, it does not speak of a specific day that we come and observe the Lords Day. The Sabbath actually speaks of man resting in God and His grace. So, you have the spiritual interpretation which is resting in God and his ability and strength to give us life and to exalt us to His right hand- Then you have the carnal interpretation. The carnal observing of the sabbath. Which is what man does as we turn it into a day where we come and observe a day, even though it never had to do with anything about observing a specific day. It had to do with entering into Gods rest. I’m gonna quote a couple verses from Colossians 2 and then talk about what it is to observe a fast… [16 Therefore let no one sit in judgment on you in matters of food and drink, or with regard to a feast day or a New Moon or a Sabbath. 17 Such [things] are only the shadow of things that are to come, and they have only a symbolic value. But the reality (the substance, the solid fact of what is foreshadowed, the body of it) belongs to Christ.] So, the fast Daniel went on that looks like a “carnal fast” is not “the body” of what a fast is actually talking about. It was a shadow of the fast that would come in Jesus. When we interpret the fast Daniel went on carnally, then we are observing the shadow and we’re not observing the body of a fast that is found in Christ. People who preach this are preaching the shadow and not the substance. You want to point people to Christ, not the shadow. You can only observe a fast through Christ. So, to observe a sabbath is to believe on Jesus. That is the fulfillment. So, in the same way, fasting needs to find it’s fulfillment in Christ. So, the way you observe a fast is not by depriving yourself of food, water, or some entertainment. It’s believing on Jesus. BOOM. Done. The thing that Daniel fasted from was he did not make his ability or the works of his hands or the strength of the flesh his “food for life”. He did not make the Law system his food. He fasted from trusting in the strength of the flesh and the works of mans hands and instead, he believed on God and on Gods grace and strength to deliver him and give him life. Jesus did the exact same thing when he was on that Cross. He was tempted by the serpent to enlist his own ability to save himself, to clothe himself, to exalt himself to the position of a son… instead he fasted! The cross is a symbol of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil!"""

That's great guys - often 'strength' implies difficulty or strife. 💡 When this clarifies loving God with all of your everything - including your weakness, your confusion etc! In your seeking, in your thinking and everything you have. Rather than just a vigorous physical strength that may not be present at all times! Very good! With love, the Clarity Team 💎💡🎀

@megiramos9695 3 года назад

I love this insight. In my synagogue, we say "...and you shall love Adonai your G-d with all of your heart, all of your mind, and all of your strength...." I have also heard it said by other jews "...all of your resources..." instead of "strength". Now, I understand the reason for resources, because of the Greek translation. Sometimes, when I say the Shema, I will say, "strength", and sometimes I will say, "resources". When I say the Shema, my soul pleads with Yisrael to love Adonai in these ways, not just with our own power or strength, but with everything, every resource our Father has given to us. Wbat I mean by that, is quite literally the meod, the "everythingness". Love Adonai with the food He has given us, the air He puts in our lungs, the vehicles He has given us, the money He has extended to us, the clothes He has allowed to be on our bodies, the hairs on oir heads, the very skin and fingernails we have, our shoes, with the seas and the dirt, withthe trees, with our weapons, with our houses, with our livestock; quite literally with everything is what I am saying when I say "resources" in the Shema. Everything we have He has extended to us; He is the provider of all our needs, our every breath, and our every heartbeat. And to finish this comment: my biggest plea when I say the Shema, is after saying literally to love Adonai your G-d with your everythingness, is saying to love your neighbor as yourself. That completes the way you love Adonai with your everythingness, loving your neighbor in such a massive way. The Shema is sooo deep; so, so deep. To me, Yeshua spent his life teaching people how to live the Shema as it was intended. The Shema, the nuthsell fullfillment of the Torah, and how to live. ❤
