22 And Jacob, my brother, also, I shall love above all flesh; for I have not a brother in all the earth but him only: and this is no great merit for me if I love him; for he is my brother, and we were sown together in thy body, and together came we forth from thy womb, and if I do not love my brother, whom shall I love?

(JUB) 24 And I swear unto thee that I shall love him, and not desire evil against him all the days of my life but good only.' (JUB)
