John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Deuteronomy 6:5

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart — And is this only an external commandment? Can any then say, that the Sinai — covenant was merely external? With all thy heart — With an entire love. He is One; therefore our hearts must be united in his love. And the whole stream of our affections must run toward Him. O that this love of God may be shed abroad in our hearts.
