Matthew 22:35-40

35 and one of them, a teacher of the Law, tried to trap him with a question.
36 "Teacher," he asked, "which is the greatest commandment in the Law?"
37 Jesus answered, " "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' 1
38 This is the greatest and the most important commandment.
39 The second most important commandment is like it: "Love your neighbor as you love yourself.' 2
40 The whole Law of Moses and the teachings of the prophets depend on these two commandments." 3
