St. Mark 12. 28-34: "'Which commandment is the greatest of all?' Jesus answered, 'The first is Hear O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one; you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: You shall love your neighbour as yourself'"."As charity comprises the two commandments to which the Lord related the whole Law and the prophets...so the Ten Commandments were themselves given on two tablets. Three were written on one tablet and seven on the other" (St. Augustine).
