- You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.
- The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.
- And ‘to love him with all your heart, and with all your understanding, and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself,’ is worth more than any burnt offerings and sacrifices.
How great you are, Lord God! There is no one like you, and there is no God except you alone, as everything that we have heard confirms. Go and learn what this text means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ I have come to call not the righteous but sinners.Next verse!With image
