And one of the Pharisees, a lawyer, asked Jesus a question to test him. “Teacher, what is the great commandment in the law?” And He said to him,’You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it,…’ Matthew 22. 35
