Mark 12:28-31
The Greatest Commandment
28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”
29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord (YHWH) our God, the Lord (YHWH) is one. 30 Love the Lord (YHWH) your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”
I asked Jehovah’s Witnesses: “Who’s your neighbor?”
They said: “All Jehovah’s Witnesses.”
I asked Christians: “Who’s your neighbor?”
They said: “Everybody.”
They asked me: “Who’s your neighbor?”
I answered: “Only Rose, my own phantom woman,
eternal beauty and dream partner.”
