Which is the most important?
The most important one, verse 29, answered Jesus, is this.
Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.
Love the Lord your God.
with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.
Here's what I find funny.
He asked him for one, which is the greatest.
Then he said, the second is this.
He didn't ask for two, he asked for one.
But he gave him two.
Love your neighbor as yourself.
There is no commandment
greater than these.
It's almost like it's two for one, like they go together.
Well, what's funny is then the guy, the teacher of the law, just think you're having a conversation with
unbeknownst to him, with the creator of the universe, who wrote the law, he made you.
Who is the Lord God.
And then he's like, well said, teacher.
So now you're going to affirm the creator of the universe.
Good job, the man replied.
