Matthew 22:37–46
37Jesus said to him,“‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’↗
38This is the first and great commandment.↗
39A second likewise is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’↗
40The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”↗
41Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,↗
42saying,“What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?” They said to him, “Of David.”↗
43He said to them,“How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,↗
44‘The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet’?↗
45“If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?”↗
46No one was able to answer him a word, neither did any man dare ask him any more questions from that day forward.↗
