greatest commandment

[Melody]

Matthew 22:36"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" 37Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'[b] 38This is the first and greatest commandment. 39And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'[c] 40All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."

Frubals....if Jesus says this is the greatest commandment, who am I to argue. I love this verse. One of my favorites.

i like the commandment from the ten commandments "honour thy father and thy mother"

I got a kick out of The Black Bible's "Thou shalt commit adultry."

The two philosiphies I live by are to try to understand everything, and do unto others as the've done to you.

Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it, instead of love wasted on ingrates!

When I looked this passage up, it says --

"Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour; I am the LORD." KJV

"Do not go about spreading slander among your people."
"Do not do anything that endangers your neighbor's life. I am the LORD." NIV

Are you infering this to mean, "not to stand by while another is in danger"?
Or is there a version of (Lev. 19:16) that comes closer to your meaning? If so, could you provide a link? Thanks.

Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people; neither shalt thou stand idly by the blood of thy neighbour: I am HaShem.

[I.e., do not stand by,] watching your fellow’s death, when you are able to save him; for example, if he is drowning in the river or if a wild beast or robbers come upon him. — [Torath Kohanim 19:41; Sanh. 73a]
