Upon these two commandments hang the whole Law and the Prophets.”
“In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets.
For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
For this, “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from a sincere faith.
If, however, you are fulfilling the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well.
