As I have loved you so Sat 4/23 5:00 PM Bernard & Elizabeth Ross you also should love one another.” This new commandment is by Armstrong Family quite different from the old commandment. The old law com- 8:00 AM Margaret Doherty manded us to love our neighbor as we love our self. In Leviticus by Doherty & Moore Family it refers to other Israelites only; here it refers to other Christians, Sun 4/24 10:30 AM Daniel O'Sullivan in a similarly restricted sense (19:34f).
