Deuteronomy 6:5

New Living Translation (NLT)
And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength.
 
Jesus says that loving God is the first and greatest commandment {See Matthew 22:37-39 below}. This command combined with the command to love your neighbor {See Leviticus 19:18 below}, encompasses all the other Old Testament laws.

New Living Translation (NLT)
37 Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’
 

Leviticus 19:18

New Living Translation (NLT)
18 “Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against a fellow Israelite, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord.
