Show me only one verse.Jews, Muslim, JW's, and Unitarians can see it.
Maybe the problem is by you.
Please show me only one verse that proves that god is only one person.Why doesn't the Tanach say God is one?
Answer: It does.
"Hear O Israel the LORD is our God the LORD is one."Show me only one verse.
And did God say in the beginning: "Let me create man after my image" or "Let us create man after our image"?Why doesn't the Tanach say God is one?
Answer: It does.
No, "one" does not mean the person but the unity."Hear O Israel the LORD is our God the LORD is one."
One just means one. Nothing more and nothing less.
The latter. I only have time now for the short answer because it's soon shabbat, which is: It's "the royal 'we'" and there are proofs for this from the Tanach, but I don't have time at the moment. Perhaps someone else does have time to further explain. Have a nice weekend.And did God say in the beginning: "Let me create man after my image" or "Let us create man after our image"?
Deut. 6:4, most famously.Show me only one verse.
The "Royal we" argument again. You don't have to explain that argument to me, I know it already. And it's been refuted enough times.The latter. I only have time now for the short answer because it's soon shabbat, which is: It's "the royal 'we'" and there are proofs for this from the Tanach, but I don't have time at the moment.

Hebrew is their language? It is God's language and the first man who spoke this language was Adam. And Adam was not part of the jewish faith of today.Why do you have to start this "I am going to teach the Jews something about their language"-stiff before Shabbat?
Why not any other day of the week? I wanted to be entertained into the night.
Are you asking why God is not identified textually as a person, or why the singular verb/pronoun is or is not used to refer to God in a particular case?Muslims, Jehovah's Witnesses and those who live the Jewish faith claim that but I cannot read in the Tanakh that God is only one.
Your mistake is literalism. The meaning is that every human can experience the Divine.And did God say in the beginning: "Let me create man after my image" or "Let us create man after our image"?
