Greatest Commandment

Matthew

Mark

Luke

John
22:34 But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.


22:35 Then one of them, [which was] a lawyer, asked [him a question,] tempting him, and saying, 12:28 And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him,

22:36 Master, which [is] the great commandment in the law? 12:28 Which is the first commandment of all?

22:37 Jesus said unto him, 12:29 And Jesus answered him,


12:29 The first of all the commandments [is,] Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

22:37 Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength:

22:38 This is the first and great commandment. 12:30 this [is] the first commandment.

22:39 And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 12:31 And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.


12:31 There is none other commandment greater than these.

22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.



12:32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:
12:33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love [his] neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
12:34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him [any question.]
