We present numerical exact results for the ground state and the low-lying excitations for the spin-1/2 J1-J2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on finite square lattices of up to N=40 sites. Using finite-size extrapolation we determine the ground-state energy, the magnetic order parameters, the spin gap, the uniform susceptibility, as well as the spin-wave velocity and the spin stiffness as functions of the frustration parameter J2/J1. In agreement with the generally excepted scenario we find semiclassical magnetically ordered phases for J2 < J2ᶜ¹ and J2 > J2ᶜ² separated by a gapful quantum paramagnetic phase. We estimate J2ᶜ¹ ≈ 0.35J1 and J2ᶜ² ≈ 0.66J1.
