The Greatest Commandment


28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus
had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is
the most important?”


29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our
God, the Lord is one.


30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your
soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.


31 The second is this: ‘Love
your neighbour as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these.”


32 “Well said, teacher,” the man replied. “You are right in saying that God is one and
there is no other but him.


33 To love him with all your heart, with all your
understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbour as yourself is
more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”


34 When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far
from the kingdom of God.” And from then on no one dared ask him any more
questions.
