The command to "Love your neighbor as yourself" is a central teaching in the Bible and appears in both the Old and New Testaments. Here are some key references:Leviticus 19:18 (Old Testament)
"Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord."
Matthew 22:39 (New Testament)
Jesus mentions this command as part of the two greatest commandments:
"And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
Mark 12:31 (New Testament)
"The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."
Luke 10:27 (New Testament)
Jesus affirms this command when asked about eternal life:
"He answered: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and, love your neighbor as yourself.'"
Romans 13:9 (New Testament)
"The commandments, 'You shall not commit adultery,' 'You shall not murder,' 'You shall not steal,' 'You shall not covet,' and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
Galatians 5:14 (New Testament)
"For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
James 2:8 (New Testament)
"If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, 'Love your neighbor as yourself,' you are doing right."
These verses emphasize that loving others is a central principle of Christian life, reflecting God's love for us and the importance of loving others as we love ourselves.
