THE HOLY BIBLE Authorized King James

Matthew (Author Matthew)

22:34But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.

22:35Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,

22:36Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

22:37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

22:38This is the first and great commandment.

22:39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

22:40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

22:41While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

22:42Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The Son of David.

22:43He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,

22:44The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?

22:45If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?

22:46And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
