Hearing that Jesus had silenced the sadducees, the Pharisees got together one of them, an expert of the law tested him with his question teacher which is the greatest commandment in the law? Jesus replied love the lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind this is the first and greatest commandment and this is the second is like it love your neighbor as yourself. All of the law and the prophets hang on this two commandment.
