Good Samaritans

The Parable of the Good Samaritan is a New Testament parable appearing only in the Gospel of Luke.[1] (Also known as The Good Neighbor). The majority view indicates this parable is told by Jesus in order to illustrate that compassion should be for all people, and that fulfilling the spirit of the Law is just as important as fulfilling the letter of the Law. Jesus puts the definition of neighbor into an enlarged context, beyond what people usually thought of as a neighbor. [2] See the minority view also.
