Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment?

In the Old Testament, all the commandments were, thou shalt not.... all very negative. But this commandment to love one another was such a powerful positive direction it had to be a completely new way of thinking or commandment. In the past the Jews had put more emphasis on what they should not do, instead of what they should. When Jesus started preaching love and forgiveness, the Pharisees did not know what to make of it all, it was so against their ancient teaching. What a wonderful commandment to follow - love on another, thankyou Jesus.

Why does Jesus call Love One Another a New commandment?

Because in Old Commandment ''the rules in the society in that time'' said that; Love your friends, hate your enemies, but Jesus gave a new commandment, that we must love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us ''love one another-Mat 5:44''. Matthew 5 : 38-45.
