Luke 10:25-37
Wanting to “justify” ourselves, we might ‘just’ ask, “And who is my neighbor”? After all, we’ve got to draw the line somewhere, don’t we? A neighborhood can’t be a neighborhood without boundaries. The lawyer’s question seems reasonable enough. Leave it to Jesus to turn the tables with a parable. A Samaritan? Not choosing neighbors, but being a neighbor? Even to strangers? Me do likewise? Really, Jesus? Really?
