“Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind’. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Matthew 22:37-40 (NIV)
“The second is like it”, in the original language, is saying, “The second is an extension of it.” To love my neighbor is a piece of the first; it is an inseparable piece. It can never be just “me and God”; it always has to be “Me, You and God”. That is what our Abba requires.
