Question
Rabbi, I hope this email finds you doing well! I first off want to thank y'all for hosting this service, being able to send these emails means a lot! In a post Jesus-movement world, the idea of a “trinitarian,” “Unitarian,” and even “bitarian” God seems to be a matter of debate between believers of Jesus and non-believers in Jesus. Stressing that HaShem is ONE makes a lot of sense- but a time BEFORE the introduction of the Christian faith, what did it mean for HaShem to stress his oneness? I understand HaShem wanting to clarify that He is the ONLY god to be worshipped, but why clarify that He *was ONE?* Thank you, Ryan
