== Jesus' teaching of the most important Commandments ==
== Jesus' teaching of the Commandments ==
Jesus clarifies and reinforces the Commandments several times in the Gospels, including:
 
=== Mark 10:19, The Rich Man ===
You know the commandments: ‘'''You shall not kill; you shall not commit adultery; you shall not steal; you shall not bear false witness; you shall not defraud; honor your father and your mother'''.’”
He replied and said to him, “Teacher, all of these I have observed from my youth.”
Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said to him, “You are lacking in one thing. Go, sell what you have, and give to [the] poor and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.” ([https://bible.usccb.org/bible/mark/10?19 Mark 10:19])
 
=== Mark 12:28: The Greatest Commandment ===
One of the scribes,i when he came forward and heard them disputing and saw how well he had answered them, asked him, “Which is the first of all the commandments?”
Jesus replied, “The first is this: ‘Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone!
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’
The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
