Yes this is related to last week's post!
#paul in #romans Romas Chpater 13 Verse 8 - 10 writes something that's a comment on last weeks passage Matthew 19: 16 - 22
These verses in Paul also suggest that someone was already compiling and recording Jesus' teachings into what would become the Gospels.
Now Paul writes
Verse 8
to nothing/one anything owe if not the (in relations to) each other to love
he who for loving the other law fulfills (completely note that the Perfect form of verb pleroo used in greek!)
Verse 9 echoes verse 18 and 19 in Matthew's gospel
with the additional remark made by Paul that
and any other commandment
are in this word anakephalaioutai
Anakephalaiow summarize sum up is literally "heads up" ana+kephalee
Each and Every of the 10 commandments Entolee or the whole of Mosaic Law Nomos are summarized as ... again a quote
You will love the person near / neighbour of you as yourself.
Verse 10
The Love to the nearby person evil not works
fulfilment therefore of law the LOVE!
Do no evil Love Your Neighbour is the fulfilment and summary of LAW.
