(ESV)\n\n        On Monday of Holy Week, the week Jesus died and rose again,\n   He was in the Temple debating with the Sadducees and Pharisees.\n   A Pharisee, a lawyer, asked Jesus a question in an attempt to\n   catch Jesus with either a lie or a contradiction.  ``Teacher,\n   which is the great commandment of the Law?''\n\n        And he said to him, ``You shall love the Lord your God\n        with all your heart and with all your soul and with all\n        your mind.  This is the great and first commandment.\n        And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor\n        as yourself.  On these two commandments depend all the\n        Law and the Prophets.''\n\n\n        Rather than list one of the 613 laws of the Jewish religion,\n   Jesus summarized the entire Law.  We love God above all things,\n   we love our neighbors as much as we love ourselves.  The dietary\n   laws, the Sabbath laws, the ceremonial laws, and even the civil\n   laws are contained in these short words.\n\n        This was the only answer Jesus could give which would not\n   cause controversy and arguments.  This was the only answer Jesus\n   could give which could destroy the evil intent of the lawyer's\n   question.\n\n        May our Lord grant us faith to understand the Law as being\n   given in love so that we may reflect God's love.  Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>October 21, 2025 Broadcast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3930","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2025"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3930","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3930"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3930\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3931,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3930\/revisions\/3931"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3930"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3930"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3930"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
