The three loves

Hidden inside "love your neighbor as yourself" is a third love we forget: love of self. We are to love God, our neighbor, and ourselves — and the whole law rests on all three together. You cannot truly love others while hiding from, or hating, yourself.

Support

Matthew 22:39. The self-love is implicit in "as thyself."
