WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[34] But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, gathered themselves together. [35] One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him. [36] "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?" [37] Jesus said to him, "'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 first and great commandment. [39] A second likewise is this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' [40] The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments."
