========================
Matthew 22:34-40
========================
34Hearing that Jesus had
silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together.
35One of them, an expert in
the law, tested him with this question:
36“Teacher, which is the
greatest commandment in the Law?”
37Jesus replied: “‘Love the
Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your
mind.’
38This is the first and
greatest commandment.
39And the second is like it:
‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
40All the Law and the
Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
