the whole Law and the Prophets depend upon or are based upon these two commandments.Here Jesus speaks as if these two commandments were hooks upon which the whole Law and the Prophets hang. He could mean that: (1) the whole Law and the Prophets depend upon and elaborate these two commandments. Alternate translation: “The whole Law and the Prophets elaborate on just these two commandments” (2) these two commandments summarize the whole Law and the Prophets. Alternate translation: “These two commandments summarize the whole Law and the Prophets”

ὅλος ὁ νόμος & καὶ οἱ προφῆται

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
οἱ προφῆται

Here, the word Prophets represents what the prophets said and wrote. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the writings of the prophets”
22:40 are based on: Jesus’ statement affirmed the unity and coherence of God’s will, as recorded in Scripture.
OET (OET-RV) Everything from the Torah and the writings of the prophets just follows on from those two commandments.”
