1 | 2nd greatest vs the new commandment | Mark 12:31 | azurelaw | 215905 | ||
What is/are the difference(s) between this 2nd greatest commandment and the new commandment (John 13:34)? Which should hold greater weight and coverage? If as according to Mark 12:31 "... there is no other commandment greater than these", why add a new commandment? Thanks and shalom Azure |

Sister Azure, There is a great sermon from Spurgeon at the following: http://www.spurgeongems.org/vols49-51/chs2936.pdf In my opinion, Searcher's answer summarizes it rather well in that there is a reference to the extent of the love and maybe to whom it is directed. Of course our love cannot accomplish what His did it is still our example as well as a commandment. Ephesians 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. Stand in His grace, WOS |
