John Trapp on Matthew 22:40

Verse 40. Hang all the Law and Prophets] Yea and the Gospel too: for love is both the complement of the Law, and the supplement of the Gospel, Rom. 13. 10. Ioh. 13. 34. It is the filling [non-Latin text not transcribed]. up of the Law (as the word signifieth,) for that it clotheth the duties of the Law with the glory of a due manner, and seateth them upon their due subjects, with unwearied labours of constant well-doing. The Prophets also hang upon the same nail of love [non-Latin text not transcribed]. with the Law, so some frame the Metaphor here used: As some others rather think, that our Saviour, in this expression alludeth to the Jewish Phylacteries, Heb. Totaphoth, which were scroules of parchment, having the Commandments written in them, which the Pharisees ware about their heads and arms, to minde them of obedience to the Law.
