New Testament1 JohnThe Old and New Commandments: Brotherly Love · 2:7–112:7 Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.2:8 Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.2:9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.2:10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.2:11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.
