Mt 22,34-40 says:
22:34 But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.
22:35 One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him.
22:36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?”
22:37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’
22:38 This is the first and great commandment.
22:39 A second likewise is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
22:40 The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”
