Fulfilling the Law Through Love

8 ^bOwe no one anything, except to love each other, for ^cthe one who loves another has fulfilled the law. 9 For the commandments, ^d“You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: ^e“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore ^flove is the fulfilling of the law.
