The Parable of the Good Samaritan

“A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. ³¹ A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. ³² So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. ³³ But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. ³⁴ He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. ³⁵ The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’

³⁶ “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”

³⁷ The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.”

Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”

The Vision

The Story of the Art 

• The Walking Figures: The silhouettes in the background represent the Priest and the Levite—those who defined "neighbor" as someone convenient. They represent the tendency to justify ourselves and walk away.
• The Embrace: The central figure doesn't ask definitions; he acts. The strong stance represents the Samaritan becoming a neighbor rather than just looking for one.
• The Flowing Cloth: The white fabric represents the "binding of wounds"—pure, unadulterated grace extended to a stranger in the dust.
• The Distant Building: Represents the institutions and philosophies that often fail to meet real human needs on the ground.
• The Lesson: Love is not a theory or a theological debate. It is a raw, inconvenient act.
