Mark 12:28-31 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

²⁸Now one of the scribes had come up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”

          29Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.
          30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’
          31The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”
