MARK 12:31 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.”
The second is this: love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these — the second commandment from Leviticus 19:18 is inseparable from the first: love God, love neighbor. The there is no commandment greater than these communicates that every other commandment is an application or expression of these two. All the Torah and the prophets (Matthew 22:40) hang on these two — they are not two commandments among many but the root from which all commandments grow.
