Jesus was asked in St. Matthew 22, "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?" He replied with two, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbour as yourself. All the Law and Prophets hang on these two commandments." (St. Matthew 22:36-40).

I numbered them as I went along, and was very surprised to see that when this journey ended, the number was 613 -- the exact number of commands given in the Old Testament. I knew then that this book had to be released.
