<p>Today we address three major topics:</p><p>1. The first line of the Shema - What does it mean that God is &quot;one&quot;? What is the connection between &quot;shema&quot; and the &quot;love&quot; of God?</p><p>2. The notion of &quot;you shall teach your children&quot; and the power of Talmud Torah as a major principle.</p><p>3. Is there an ethic independent of Halakha? - &quot;You shall do that which is just and good&quot;</p>
