¹⁴ For ^(A)the whole law is fulfilled in one word: ^(B)“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

The Golden Rule

¹² “So ^(A)whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is ^(B)the Law and the Prophets.

^18 (A)You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the sons of your own people, but ^(B)you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.

^2 (A)Bear one another's burdens, and ^(B)so fulfill ^(C)the law of Christ.

^34 (A)A new commandment ^(B)I give to you, ^(C)that you love one another: ^(D)just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.

^31 (A)The second is this: ^(B)‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment ^(C)greater than these.”

³⁹ And ^(A)a second is like it: ^(B)You shall love your neighbor as yourself. ^40 (C)On these two commandments depend ^(D)all the Law and the Prophets.”

Fulfilling the Law Through Love

^8 (A)Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for ^(B)the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. ⁹ For the commandments, ^(C)“You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: ^(D)“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” ¹⁰ Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore ^(E)love is the fulfilling of the law.

⁵ The aim of our charge is love ^(A)that issues from a pure heart and ^(B)a good conscience and ^(C)a sincere faith.
