Day 260. How did Jesus summarize God’s Law? (2025)

Today is day 260 and we are studying The Ten Commandments.

260. How did Jesus summarize God’s Law?

Jesus summarized God’s Law by saying: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.” (Matthew 22:37–40; see also Deuteronomy 6:1–9; Leviticus 19:9–18; Psalm 31:23–24; John 15:7–17; 1 John 4:16–5:3)

We will conclude today by praying the Collect for the Fifth Sunday in Lent found on page 606 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
