Matthew 22:34-39

The Great Commandment

34 ¹But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced ²the Sadducees, they gathered together.

35 ³And one of them, ⁴a lawyer, asked him a question ⁵to test him.

36 "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?"

37 And he said to him, ⁶"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.

38 This is the great and first commandment.

39 And ⁷a second is like it: ⁸You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
