Parable of the Good Samaritan

The Parable of the Good Samaritan, found in the Bible (Luke 10:25-37), teaches compassion and the importance of helping others, regardless of their background. In the story, a Samaritan helps a wounded man whom others, including a priest and a Levite, ignored due to societal prejudices. The Samaritan cares for the man's injuries and ensures he gets further help. This parable emphasizes that true kindness transcends social barriers and that we should treat everyone with empathy and support, challenging us to be good neighbors, regardless of differences in race, religion, or social status.
