Crazy boy [7]

Which of these three do you think was a neighbour to the man who fell into the hand of robbers? Isn't he the one who had mercy on him?

The Samaritan was the one who helped the man. The Samaritan, yes he had mercy on the poor man even though they were perhaps from distinct regions and religions. If the man was from Jerusalem he was perhaps an Israelite an Israelites despised Samaritans due to their worship of many Gods. So, that the Samaritan took pity on this man was a leap of faith. After the man recovered he could have pretended that the Samaritan man never took care of him or that he never knew him in the first place.

1. What happened to the traveller when he was on his way to Jericho?

He got robbed, he fell into the hands of multiple robbers as the passage says “robbers” in plural. Then, “They stripped him of his clothes, beat him, and went away leaving him half-dead.”

2.What did the priest and the rich man do when they saw the half-dead traveller lying on the road?

Both went and walked the other side, they didn‘t help the poor man who was almost half-dead. The priest had a duty or obligation to the man because he was a priest. Supposedly he was to set an example for the community and those around him. He was to obey Gods laws to “help thou neighbor”. And, the rich man had the economic disposition to actually help the man, he just didn’t want to.

3.How did the Samaritan react when he saw the badly injured traveller?

He took pity on the man.

4. a. Why did the Samaritan give some money to the innkeeper?

So the innkeeper could take care of the man.

b. This shows he was kind, caring and generous. True or False? True

5.According to this story, can strangers be our neighbours?. Explain.

Yes, strangers can be our neighbors. The reason I state this is because strangers can help us in our time of need. Of course, strangers won’t help us move our couch to our new home. But, if we are being kidnapped and we scream for help and run, someone, a stranger can help us in our time of need. Also, strangers can help us with small tasks such as bringing our grocery to the car, etc.
