Matthew 22:35-40

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁵ And one of them, a doctor of the law, asking him, tempting him:

³⁶ Master, which is the greatest commandment in the law?

³⁷ Jesus said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.

³⁸ This is the greatest and the first commandment.

³⁹ And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

⁴⁰ On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets.
