Passion Week – Tuesday

Then one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, and saying, “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?”

Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.” Matthew 22:34-40

It is Tuesday. It is a contentious morning as Jesus is challenged and questioned by the religious establishment.

In the midst of these exchanges, Jesus distills all the Law and the Prophets to two commandments: love God and love your neighbor.

Jesus taught it. Jesus lived it. Friday will prove it.

How shall we love today?
