33. One must love God with all his heart, all his mind, and all his strength. And one must love his neighbor as he loves himself. These commands are more important than all the animals and sacrifices we offer to God.”
34. Jesus saw that the man answered him wisely. So Jesus said to him, “You are close to the kingdom of God.” And after that, no one was brave enough to ask Jesus any more questions.
35. Jesus was teaching in the Temple. He asked, “Why do the teachers of the law say that the Christ is the son of David?
36. David himself, speaking by the Holy Spirit, said:‘The Lord said to my Lord:Sit by me at my right side,until I put your enemies under your control.’ Psalm 110:1
37. David himself calls the Christ ‘Lord.’ So how can the Christ be David’s son?” The large crowd listened to Jesus with pleasure.
