- The belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods.
‘ideas about the relationship between science and religion’
- 1.1count noun A particular system of faith and worship.
‘the world’s great religions’
- 1.2count noun A pursuit or interest followed with great devotion.
‘consumerism is the new religion’

The verb שלח is most commonly used to indicate the idea of sending away. Such is the case of Parashat Beshalch where Pharaoh sends away the Israelites from Egypt. This is also the common use when someone sends a message or a messenger to someone, and this is the common use in modern Hebrew. However, like most words in Hebrew there are many more meanings which stem from the basic semantic meaning.

אֶת-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ תִּירָא, אֹתוֹ תַעֲבֹד; וּבוֹ תִדְבָּק, וּבִשְׁמוֹ תִּשָּׁבֵעַ.
“You are to fear YHWH your God, serve him, cling to him and swear by his name”. Devarim (Deuteronomy) 10:20
One of the most controversial topics in the Jewish world, and nowadays in the Christian Torah keeping world, is the use of the name in everyday life. Regardless of the dispute about how to pronounce the name (something I will not touch on in this article), there is an important part of life where the name is to be used, and we are commanded by Torah to use it.
