Deuteronomy 6:4 Douay-Rheims

Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord.

Ambrose of Milan

A.D. 339–397 Patristic

The law says, "Hear, O Israel, the Lord your God." It did not say "speak" but "hear." Eve fell because she said to the man what she had not heard from the Lord her God. The first word from God says to you, "hear."
