Talk:The Ten Commandments/Which Is The Most Important Commandment?

I'm confused about why this chapter is here. This has nothing to do with The 10 Commandments, since Jesus' reply doesn't include any of them. Am I missing something?

Why wouldn't "the most important commandment" be included? - TheSun 19:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

I think that the answer given lies outside of the stated scope of this book, which from the title, seems to be the ten commandments found in Ex 20. The two commandments presented here are not found in the ten, they are in fact drawn from other important portions of Old Testament Scripture. I think this might fit more in a discussion of the concept of Old Testament Law; however, this book gives as its focus the ten commandments found in Ex 20, and so this seems irrelevant. If the question was asked and answered as "Which of the 10 Commandments is the most important?" (which I would say is implied by its inclusion in the "Understanding the Ten Commandments" section of a book titled "The Ten Commandments"), it would seem much more related to the book as a whole. I think that a discussion of Jesus' commentary on the whole of the Torah is out of place here. --19:57, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
