'Commandment' in the Bible

He answered them, "And why do you disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?

"Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?"

This is the first and greatest commandment.

He also said to them, "You neatly reject the commandment of God in order to set up your tradition.

But Jesus said to them, "He wrote this commandment for you because of your hard hearts.

Now one of the experts in the law came and heard them debating. When he saw that Jesus answered them well, he asked him, "Which commandment is the most important of all?"

The second is: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

Then they returned and prepared aromatic spices and perfumes. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down of my own free will. I have the authority to lay it down, and I have the authority to take it back again. This commandment I received from my Father."

And I know that his commandment is eternal life. Thus the things I say, I say just as the Father has told me."

"I give you a new commandment -- to love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.

My commandment is this -- to love one another just as I have loved you.

But sin, seizing the opportunity through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of wrong desires. For apart from the law, sin is dead.

And I was once alive apart from the law, but with the coming of the commandment sin became alive

and I died. So I found that the very commandment that was intended to bring life brought death!

For sin, seizing the opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through it I died.

So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good.

Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Absolutely not! But sin, so that it would be shown to be sin, produced death in me through what is good, so that through the commandment sin would become utterly sinful.

For the commandments, "Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not covet," (and if there is any other commandment) are summed up in this, "Love your neighbor as yourself."

For the whole law can be summed up in a single commandment, namely, "You must love your neighbor as yourself."

"Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment accompanied by a promise, namely,

For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than, having known it, to turn back from the holy commandment that had been delivered to them.

I want you to recall both the predictions foretold by the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles.

Dear friends, I am not writing a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word that you have already heard.

On the other hand, I am writing a new commandment to you which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.

Now this is his commandment: that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he gave us the commandment.

And the commandment we have from him is this: that the one who loves God should love his fellow Christian too.

But now I ask you, lady (not as if I were writing a new commandment to you, but the one we have had from the beginning), that we love one another.

(Now this is love: that we walk according to his commandments.) This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning; thus you should walk in it.
