Applying the text
1. Matthew tells us that the question about the greatest commandment was intended to be a test. In what way do you think the lawyer was trying to test Jesus?
2. Why do you think Jesus made a distinction between the first and second great commandments? Why is this distinction so important?
3. How can understanding our inability to keep this command actually cause us to grow in our love for God?
Love God
