We are to love our neighbors as ourselves – and that standard of comparison, as ourselves , is often taken as an implicit command to love ourselves. On this view, the wording not only permits self-love but commands it; it not only sanctions self-esteem but reinforces its importance. On the face of it, however, self-love in Mark 12 is merely presupposed, not advocated. To read much of the contemporary literature, evangelical and otherwise, on self-esteem is to inhabit a domain a long way removed from the second great commandment.

INSTRUCTIONS

Pick out any shell from crabmeat and place crab in a large bowl.
In a small bowl mix egg, mayo, and seasonings. Pour over crabmeat and fold
gently until blended. Crush the saltine crackers with your fingers into
coarse crumbs. I don't actually measure, but use enough to help the mixture
hold together, probably about half of a sleeve of crackers. Fold in the
cracker crumbs gently. Cover bowl and chill until ready to cook.
Form into small patties (about 10 - 12) and fry in hot oil/butter 5 minutes
per side, until golden brown. Serve immediately.
