Popular Bible Verses on Love for Valentine’s Day

Around holidays like Valentine’s Day, we see traffic spikes from people looking for Bible verses related to those holidays. For example, visits to 1 Corinthians 13, the “Love Chapter,” started to increase yesterday, and we expect it to continue for the rest of the day and into tomorrow.

For all the sappiness and blatant commercialism of Valentine’s Day, it’s still one of the few times during the year that we’re encouraged to express our love and affection for the people in our lives. And since Jesus tells us to love our neighbors, any excuse to celebrate love is fine by us!

We thought we’d save you some time and collect some of the more popular Bible verses about love. Think of these verses collectively as a sort of primer on Christian love:

How good and pleasant it is
when God’s people live together in unity!
It is like precious oil poured on the head,
running down on the beard,
running down on Aaron’s beard,
down on the collar of his robe.
It is as if the dew of Hermon
were falling on Mount Zion.
For there the LORD bestows his blessing,
even life forevermore.
