The New Commandment of Jesus to "love one another" is part of the final instructions given to his disciples after the Last Supper had ended,〔 "And supper being ended...",〕 and after Judas Iscariot had departed in .〔〔〔 This commandment appears thirteen times in twelve verses in the New Testament.〔〔 * * * * * * 〕 Theologically, this commandment is interpreted as dual to the Love of Christ for his followers.〔 The commandment can also be seen as the last wish in the Farewell Discourse to the disciples.〔''Imitating Jesus'' by Richard A. Burridge 2007 ISBN 0802844588 page 301〕 Despite the name, the commandment is not technically "new". The commandment to love one another is found in Leviticus 19 18. ==Gospel of John== The statement of the new commandment by Jesus in John 13:34-35 was after the Last Supper, and after the departure of Judas.〔''Encountering John: The Gospel in Historical, Literary, and Theological Perspective'' by Andreas J. Kostenberger 2002 ISBN 0801026032 pages 149-151〕 The commandment was prefaced in John 13:33 by Jesus telling his remaining disciples, as little children, that he will be with them for only a short time, then will leave them.〔 In the commandment Jesus told the disciples: "Love one another; as I have loved you".〔''The Gospel of John'' (1998) by Francis J. Moloney and Daniel J. Harrington. ISBN 0-8146-5806-7. Page 425.〕〔''The Gospel of John'' (1994) by Frederick Bruce. ISBN 0-8028-0883-2. Page 294.〕 Just after the commandment, and before the Farewell Discourse the first reference to Peter's Denials took place, where Jesus predicted that Peter would deny him three times before the cock crow.〔 Two similar statements also appear in chapter 15 of the Gospel of John: : * John 15:12: This is my commandment, that ye love one another, even as I have loved you. : * John 15:17: These things I command you, that ye may love one another. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The New Commandment」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
