4 ^s“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is ^tone.¹

4 Therefore, as to the eating of food offered to idols, we know that ^v“an idol has no real existence,” and that “there is no God but ^wone.” 5 For although there may be ^xso-called gods in heaven or on earth—as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”— 6 yet for us there is one God, the Father, ^yfrom whom are all things and for whom we exist, and ^zone Lord, Jesus Christ, ^athrough whom are all things and through whom we exist.
