In Hebrew: Shema Yisrael Adonai Eloheinu Adonai Ehad.
The literal word meanings are roughly as follows:
[b]Shema[/b] - listen, or hear
[b]Yisrael[/b] - Israel, in the sense of the people or congregation of Israel
[b]Adonai[/b] - often translated as "Lord", it is used in place of the Tetragrammaton
[b]Eloheinu[/b] - our God, the word "El" or "Elohei" signifying Gods (see also: Elohim), and the plural posessive determiner suffix "nu" or "einu" signifying "our"
[b]Ehad[/b] - the Hebrew word for "1" (the number) here it means uniified.
Furthermore, the word "us" & "our":
[b]Gen 1:26[/b] [color=990000]And God said, Let [b]us[/b] make man in [b]our[/b] image, after [b]our[/b] likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.[/color]
If He is one in three, then we are one person with three; body, soul, spirit.
Moreover, There was no one to talk to but the trinity during creation.
If they are one, God can not be unbalanced in equality for God hates an unjust balance (Pro 11:1)
....I'm not sure how that makes the Holy Spirit equal.
Then why do you think He said this? "
[b]Matthew 12:31[/b] [color=990000]Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.[/color]
If one can blasphem anything but the Holy Spirit, He must be great.
