Bible Note: Yes, Alex, thank you, I did read it. All that is well enough, concerning the Old Covenant. The word love is indeed found in the middle of a list, and indeed all Scripture is inspired by God, but we must not be pedantic about the order of His commandments because of that, God Himself -in the New Covenant- defines and places the order of things concerning His commandments. The order He put them in on that particular list I'm sure means something, but not that loving God is somehow in the middle just because it appears that way on that list. The Scripture is repeated three times in the New Testament that, Loving God is the first and foremost commandment, that has to mean more, much more then being found once on that particular list in the Old Testament.
