26Jesus replied, “What does Moses’ law say about it?”
27“It says,” he replied, “that you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind. And you must love your neighbor just as much as you love yourself.”
28“Right!” Jesus told him. “Do this and you shall live!”
