The greatest commandment

Matthew 22, 34-40

WHO ARE PHARISEES? FOR PHARISEES IT IS VERY IMPORTANT, TO STRICTLY FOLLOW GOD’S COMMANDMENTS.

ONE PHARISEE SEES: JESUS IS HERE! HE WANTS TO TEST JESUS. HE ASKS HIM A QUESTION: „WHAT IST THE GREATEST COMMANDMENT?“

JESUS ANSWERS: „THE GREATEST COMMANDMENT IS THIS: LOVE GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND ALL YOUR SOUL AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND!“

„THIS IS THE GREATEST COMMANDMENT. THE SECOND IS ALSO IMPORTANT!“

„THE SECOND COMMANDMENT IS THIS: LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF!“

„THESE TWO COMMANDMENTS SUMMARISE ALL OTHER COMMANDMENTS OF THE LAW. WITH THESE TWO COMMANDMENTS EVERYTHING IS SAID!“
