Hmmm. So your claim is that because it doesn't say so in so many words, that "Love your neighbor" isn't part of the ten commandments?
What, then, is the purpose of commandments 6-10? All Jesus really did was condense 5 commandments into three words.
Are you now able to understand my question ?
Not yet. Please connect the dots for me. I must be dense.
Yes, the Ten Commandments appear in different books of the Torah (First five books of the Bible), specifically in Exodus, and repeated in Deuteronomy. The love to love they neighbor is part of the Law of Moses, yet not one of the Ten Commandments.

False, the three words already exist eternally in Leviticus from whence I quoted them.

Do not be hard on yourself. The Messiah kept the commandments, including Leviticus, which specifically commands to love the Jewish people as thyself. He said it was the second greatest commandment, just so we know where he's coming from, so to speak. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end. And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left. Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots. But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God. Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord, And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul. And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep. 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.
