Yup, those are the two laws. Loving God with all one's heart, soul, and mind and loving one's neighbor as oneself are the two Great Commandments that Jesus refers too. Earlier than Jesus, Eammial (sp) one of the founding rabbis of the Talmud has been quoted saying something very similar to what Jesus said as the second law about 100 years earlier. There's a story that goes with this, but my portable just crashed and I don't have time to write it now. If anyone is interested, I'll do it later.
