于是大大地争吵起来；有几个法利赛派的文士站起来争辩说：“我们看不出这人有什么错处；说不定有鬼魂或者天使对他说过话呢！”

有一个文士来，听见他们的辩论，知道耶稣回答得好，就问他说：“诫命中哪一条是第一呢？”耶稣回答：“第一是：‘以色列啊，你要听，主—我们的上帝是独一的主。你要尽心、尽性、尽意、尽力爱主—你的上帝。’第二是：‘要爱邻如己。’再没有比这两条诫命更大的了。”那文士对耶稣说：“好，老师，你说得对，上帝是一位，除了他以外，再没有别的了；并且尽心、尽智、尽力爱他，又爱邻如己，要比一切燔祭和祭祀好得多。”耶稣见他回答得有智慧，就对他说：“你离上帝的国不远了。”从此以后，没有人敢再问他什么。

法利赛人听见耶稣堵住了撒都该人的口，他们就聚集在一起。其中有一个人是律法师，要试探耶稣，就问他：“老师，律法上的诫命哪一条是最大的呢？”耶稣对他说：“你要尽心、尽性、尽意爱主—你的上帝。这是最大的，且是第一条诫命。第二条也如此，就是要爱邻如己。这两条诫命是一切律法和先知书的总纲。”
