Jesus’ Neighbor, and Yours
Luke 10:25–37 | The Parable of the Good Samaritan
Who is my neighbor? It’s a question asked not just by a lawyer in Jesus’ day, but by many of us still today. In one of the most well-known parables, Jesus shows that our neighbor is not defined by geography, background, or even behavior—but by need. The one who needs your mercy is your neighbor.
The hymn reminds us, “The Law of God is Good and Wise” (LSB 579), and that law calls us to love, serve, and show mercy to all whom God places before us—yes, even the unlovable, the overlooked, and the outright difficult. Whether it’s the wounded, the wicked, or the weary, the call is the same: “Go and do likewise.”
Christ Himself is the ultimate Good Samaritan—He did not pass us by in our sin and death but came to us, bore our burdens, and paid the cost to make us whole. Now, in His mercy, we are set free to do the same for others.
