spacerQuestions for Discussion

  1. Why is loving God the greatest commandment?
  2. Why does Jesus make loving one's neighbor dependent on self-love, while the commandment to love God is independent and unqualified?
  3. Why does Jesus say that "all the law and the prophets" depend on these two laws?
