The parable of the Good Samaritan is a parable told by Jesus and is mentioned in only one of the gospels of the New Testament. According to the Gospel of Luke () a traveller (who may or may not have been a Jew〔Joel B. Green, ''(The Gospel of Luke )'', Eerdmans, 1997, ISBN 0-8028-2315-7, p. 429.〕) is stripped of clothing, beaten, and left half dead along the road. First a priest and then a Levite come by, but both avoid the man. Finally, a Samaritan comes by. Samaritans and Jews generally despised each other, but the Samaritan helps the injured man. Jesus is described as telling the parable in response to a question regarding the identity of the "neighbour", whom Leviticus says should be loved. Portraying a Samaritan in a positive light would have come as a shock to Jesus's audience.〔Funk, Robert W., Roy W. Hoover, and the Jesus Seminar. ''The five gospels.'' HarperSanFrancisco. 1993. "Luke" p. 271-400〕 It is typical of his provocative speech in which conventional expectations are inverted.〔 Some Christians, such as Augustine, have interpreted the parable allegorically, with the Samaritan representing Jesus Christ, who saves the sinful soul.〔Caird, G. B. (1980). The Language and Imagery of the Bible. Duckworth. p. 165.〕 Others, however, discount this allegory as unrelated to the parable's original meaning〔 and see the parable as exemplifying the ethics of Jesus.〔Sanders, E. P. The historical figure of Jesus. Penguin, 1993. p. 6.〕 The parable has inspired painting, sculpture, satire, poetry, and film. The colloquial phrase "good Samaritan", meaning someone who helps a stranger, derives from this parable, and many hospitals and charitable organizations are named after the Good Samaritan. ==Narrative== In the Gospel of Luke, the parable is introduced by a question, known as the Great Commandment: ; and your neighbour as yourself ." He said to him, "You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live." But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, "Who is my neighbour?"|Luke 10:25–29, World English Bible}} Jesus replies with a story: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Parable of the Good Samaritan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
