The Song of Moses is the name sometimes given to the poem which appears in Deuteronomy [1] of the Hebrew Bible, which according to the Bible was delivered just prior to Moses' death on Mount Nebo. Sometimes the Song is referred to as Deuteronomy 32 , despite the fact that Deuteronomy chapter 32 contains nine verses (44–52) which are not part ...
The Gospel of Mark 12:29–31 mentions that Jesus of Nazareth considered the opening exhortation of the Shema to be the first of his two greatest commandments and linked with a second (based on Leviticus 19:18b): "The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all ...
The Sabbath on which it is read is known as Sabbath of the Song (שבת שירה).

Haazinu, Ha'azinu, or Ha'Azinu (הַאֲזִינוּ —Hebrew for "listen" when directed to more than one person, the first word in the parashah) is the 53rd weekly Torah portion (פָּרָשָׁה , parashah) in the annual Jewish cycle of Torah reading and the 10th in the Book of Deuteronomy.
Isaiah's opening words recall those of Moses in Deuteronomy 32:1: "Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak; And hear, O earth, the words of my mouth. [15] It forms Isaiah's introduction in the style of the Song of Moses. [16] The New Century Version combines these two exhortations into one: Heaven and earth, listen, because the Lord is speaking.
