Changing my mind about 1 Corinthians 8:6 and the Shema

Here is the question. When Paul says, β€œfor us one God the Father…, and one Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Cor. 8:6), are the terms β€œGod… Lord” between them a reference to the shemaΚΏ: β€œHear, Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one”? www.postost.net/2025/05/chan...
