Jesus did not change the definition of love between the Old and New Testaments (see Matt. 5:17-19). Therefore, God's law in both Testaments teaches us the definition of "love."

Love -- the scriptural category -- is not merely an emotion. It is an evaluation of an action. In scripture, for example, "rebuking your neighbor" is a "loving" thing to do. Physically chastising your child when they sin is a loving act.
