Matthew 22:34-40

American Standard Version

³⁴ But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, gathered themselves together. ³⁵ And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, trying him: ³⁶ Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law? ³⁷ And he said unto him, ^[a]Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. ³⁸ This is the great and first commandment. ^39 [b]And a second like unto it is this, ^[c]Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. ⁴⁰ On these two commandments the whole law hangeth, and the prophets.
