🤝 The Good Samaritan
New Testament Luke 10:25–37
Someone asked Jesus, "Who is my neighbor?" Jesus answered with a story — a parable.
A man was traveling from Jerusalem to Jericho when robbers beat him and left him hurt by the road. A priest walked by and crossed to the other side. A temple helper did the same.
Then a Samaritan came — someone people of that time did not expect to help. He stopped, bandaged the man’s wounds, put him on his donkey, took him to an inn and paid for his care. "Which one was a neighbor?" Jesus asked. "The one who showed mercy." "Go and do the same."
