Stuart spoke about the Gospel reading when Jesus was asked by his opponents: “which is the greatest of the commandments?” He replied “love your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind; and a second is like it, love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets “. There was no answer to that.
