The famous quotation known as the Golden Rule is not actually in The Bible but the phrase, "Love your neighbor as yourself." is.

ANSWER Golden Rule. Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. The best way to do this is to Love your neighbor as yourself. Perhaps they will respond.

ANSWER In Matthew7:12 and in Luke 6:31 we have what is known as the golden rule. This goes perfectly with "love your neighbor as yourself. Think about it!
The Golden Rule actually states that you should "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

The wording of "The Golden Rule" is actually a mis-quote of Matthew 7:12 and Luke 6:31.
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

It is based on the Bible (Matthew 7:12; Luke 6:31) and became a statement of the Ethic of Reciprocity, also called the Golden Rule, that essentially states either of the following:

  1. One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself
  2. One should not treat others in ways that one would not like to be treated
