_________prayers and blessings_______________

Jewish law requires a greater measure of concentration  on the first verse of the Shema than on the rest of the prayer. People commonly close their eyes or cover them with the palm of their hand while reciting it to eliminate every distraction and help them  concentrate on the meaning of the words. The final word, echad,  should be prolonged and emphasized.

The (complete) Shema (Sh'ma)

1. Deuteronomy 6:(1-)4-9 (Shema): The core Hebrew prayer. Special emphasis is given to the first six Hebrew words of this passage (Shema Yisrael, Adonai eloheinu, Adonai echad) and a six-word response is said in an undertone (barukh shem kevod malkhuto le'olam va'ed). After a pause, Deuteronomy 6:5-9 is then recited, which stresses the commandment to love the Lord your God with all of your heart, soul, and might.

2. Deuteronomy 11:13-21 (Vehayah): This moving passage stresses the blessings that come through obedience to Adonai and the consequences that come through disobedience.

3. Numbers 15:37-41 (Vaiyomer): This passage concerns the use of a the Tallit, a rectangular prayer shawl with four fringes (called tsitsit). One tsitsit is attached to each corner of the tallit. The reason for wearing the tsitsit is to remind oneself to observe all of the commandments of the Lord.

The 13 Principles of Faith
Maimonides had a rational and analytical mind, and so felt the need to champion a creed for Judaism, as other religions did. He introduced the following 13 principles of faith (‘ikkarim in Hebrew) [Commentary on Sanhedrin 10]:

1. Belief in the existence of the Creator, who is perfect in  every manner of existence and is the Primary Cause of all that exists.

2. The belief in G-d's absolute and unparalleled unity.

3. The belief in G-d's non-corporeality, nor that He will be affected by any  physical occurrences, such as movement, or rest, or dwelling.

4. The belief in G-d's eternity.

5. The imperative to worship G-d exclusively and no foreign false gods.

6. The belief that G-d communicates with man through prophecy.

7. The belief in the primacy of the prophecy of Moses our teacher.

8. The belief in the divine origin of the Torah.

9. The belief in the immutability of the Torah.

10. The belief in G-d's omniscience and providence.

11. The belief in divine reward and retribution.

12. The belief in the arrival of the Messiah and the messianic era.

13. The belief in the resurrection of the dead

[William H.]

Machshevet Yisrael (Jewish Thought), is a broad, diverse, and non-creedal field that encompasses the intellectual, theological, ethical, and mystical traditions developed by the Jewish people over thousands of years. Rather than focusing on a single, strict set of dogmas, Jewish thought is primarily concerned with how to live in accordance with God's will, interpreting sacred texts, and engaging with questions of morality and community
