John 15:13

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends—The emphasis lies not on "friends," but on "laying down his life" for them; that is, "One can show no greater regard for those dear to him than to give his life for them, and this is the love ye shall find in Me."



John 15:12-16

That ye love one another, etc.—(See on John 13:34-35).
