39: δευτερα δε ομοια αυτη αγαπησεις τον πλησιον σου ως σεαυτον— edit Textus Receptus
39: And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.- edit KJV text
39: And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.— edit Douay text


The second is like unto it. Lev 19:18. Resembles it in importance, dignity, purity, and usefulness. This had not been asked by the lawyer, but Jesus took occasion to acquaint him with the substance of the whole law. For its meaning, See Barnes "Mt 19:19".

Comp. Rom 13:9. Mark adds, There is no greater commandment than these. None respecting circumcision or sacrifice is greater. They are the fountain of all.
