“It is no longer necessary to obey God’s laws,” christians tell us, “you only have to ‘love’ Him.” But they never specify how one is supposed to show this “love” for God. The Tōrah, however, does tell us how we are to “love” God—“So now, Yĭssra'él—what does Adōnai your God want from you? only this: to respect Adōnai your God by following all His ways and to love and serve Adōnai your God with all your heart and all your being by keeping Adōnai’s commandments and laws that I am commanding you today . . .” (D'varĭm 10:12-13)
