The commandments, "Do not commit adultery," "Do not murder," "Do not steal," "Do not covet," and whatever other commandment there may be, are summed up in this one rule: "Love your neighbor as yourself." Romans 13:9 (NIV)
My reflection of the verse
God gave us the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:1-17) and this verse mentioned them again. However, God says that loving our neighbor is an important law and we should remember it always. I think when we love our neighbors, we can't hurt them by committing all these crimes, i.e. adultery, murder, stealing and others. Further, when we love someone we always try to do what is right and pleasing to him / her. Hence, loving others like we love ourselves is a good thing for us and also to God.
