Transcript of . And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is...
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord
thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second
is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other
commandment greater than these. And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he: And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than
all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. Mark 12:29-33 (KJV)
“The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind
and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as
yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”
“Well said, teacher,” the man replied. “You are right in saying that God is
one and there is no other but him. To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your
strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all
burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
Mark 12:29-33 (NIV)

Why? Does it matter whose mind it might be? Would you want someone to be able to read your mind? Why/not?
2. The TZ episode is a warning about boundaries (personal space) that perhaps we aren’t supposed to cross. It also portrays good that could be done with that power. How realistically do you think the issue is handled? How might reading someone’s mind make a relationship easier? harder?
