One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him,“ Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”

One of the teachers of the law came and heard the Sadducees arguing. He noticed that Jesus had given the Sadducees a good answer. So he asked him,“ Which is the most important of all the commandments?”

And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, asked him,“ Which commandment is the most important of all?”

One of the teachers of religious law was standing there listening to the debate. He realized that Jesus had answered well, so he asked,“ Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”

One of the scribes approached. When he heard them debating and saw that Jesus answered them well, he asked him,“ Which command is the most important of all?”

One of the scribes came up and heard them arguing, and recognizing that He had answered them well, asked Him,“ What commandment is the foremost of all?”

Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving that He had answered them well, asked Him,“ Which is the first commandment of all?”

And one of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, What commandment is the first of all?

One of the scribes approached. When he heard them debating and saw that Jesus answered them well, he asked Him,“ Which command is the most important of all?”

And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?

One of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him,“ Which commandment is the greatest of all?”

Now when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they assembled together.And one of them, an expert in religious law, asked him a question to test him:“ Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?”Jesus said to him,“‘ Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’This is the first and greatest commandment.The second is like it:‘ Love your neighbor as yourself.’All the law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”

Now an expert in religious law stood up to test Jesus, saying,“ Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”He said to him,“ What is written in the law? How do you understand it?”The expert answered,“ Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and love your neighbor as yourself.”Jesus said to him,“ You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”

Then some of the experts in the law answered,“ Teacher, you have spoken well!”

So anyone who breaks one of the least of these commands and teaches others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever obeys them and teaches others to do so will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

“ Which ones?” he asked. Jesus replied,“ Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony,

“ Woe to you, experts in the law and you Pharisees, hypocrites! You give a tenth of mint, dill, and cumin, yet you neglect what is more important in the law– justice, mercy, and faithfulness! You should have done these things without neglecting the others.

“ But woe to you Pharisees! You give a tenth of your mint, rue, and every herb, yet you neglect justice and love for God! But you should have done these things without neglecting the others.
