Comprehensive Summary of the Ten Commandments
Matthew 22:30-40
For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.…


There are many things about this law to fill us with admiration.

I. Its completeness. It includes the whole of life and all its chiefest duties.

II. Its twofold division. The first table of the law reveals and informs a man's duty to God. The second, his duty to himself and his fellows.

III. Its twofold summary. When classified from a spiritual standpoint, it has two great commandments: supreme love to God; love to fellow-man as to one's self.

IV. Reflections. Its uniqueness, origin, scope, simplicity, tendency to lead to Christ.

(L. O. Thompson.)
