³⁴But when the Pharisees had heard that he had ^oput ^pthe Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together. ³⁵Then one of them, which was ^qa lawyer, asked him a question, ^qtempting him, and saying, ³⁶Master, which is the great commandment in the law? ³⁷Jesus said unto him, ^rThou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. ³⁸This is the first and great commandment. ³⁹And the second is like unto it, ^sThou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. ⁴⁰On these two commandments hang ^tall the law and the prophets.

⁴¹While the Pharisees were gathered together, ^uJesus asked them, ⁴²saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, ^xThe Son of David. ⁴³He saith unto them, How then doth David ^yin spirit call him Lord, saying, ⁴⁴^zThe Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool? ⁴⁵If David then call him Lord, how is he his son? ⁴⁶^aAnd no man was able to answer him a word, ^bneither durst any man from that day forth ask him any moe questions.
