Matthew 22:37-46

37 "`Thou shalt love the Lord thy God,'" He answered, "`with thy whole heart, thy whole soul, thy whole mind.'
38 This is the greatest and foremost Commandment.
39 And the second is similar to it: `Thou shalt love thy fellow man as much as thyself.'
40 The whole of the Law and the Prophets is summed up in these two Commandments."
41 While the Pharisees were still assembled there, Jesus put a question to them.
42 "What think you about the Christ," He said, "whose son is He?" "David's," they replied.
43 "How then," He asked, "does David, taught by the Spirit, call Him Lord, when he says,
44 "`The Lord said to my Lord, sit at My right hand until I have put thy foes beneath thy feet'?
45 "If therefore David calls Him Lord, how can He be his son?"
46 No one could say a word in reply, nor from that day did any one venture again to put a question to Him.
