The Lawyer answered that in the law, he<br />

read:that we should love our Lord our God with<br />

al1;our heart, and with all our soul, and with<br />

all our strenght, and with all our mind; and our<br />

neighhour as ourselves.-Our Lord said that the<br />

Lawyer had answered rightly. Our Lord asked<br />

tbe Lawycr <strong>to</strong> go and do what he (Lawyer),<br />

had read for it was through it only. would<br />

the Lawyer be shved. This our Lord's answer<br />

did not* satisfy the Lawyer and he continued<br />

<strong>to</strong> ask our Lord wliom his neighbour (Lawycr)<br />

was.<br />

In order <strong>to</strong> see that the Lawyer's curiousity<br />

was properly satisfied, our Lord used parable of<br />

the'good .Samaritan in answering it. The parable<br />

reads: Acertain man was travelling from Jerusalem<br />

<strong>to</strong> Jericho and as it happened, he fell among rob-<br />

bers who severely beat him and left him half dead.<br />

As it oceasioned, a priest and a 1 e v i t e<br />

passed and saw him but showed no sign of<br />

human sympathy. Presently, a Samaritan came<br />

and when he saw, was moved with pity. He<br />

instantly <strong>to</strong>ok the unfortunate man bound his<br />

wound and <strong>to</strong>ok him <strong>to</strong> a nearby inn. After<br />

caring for him properly, he asked the innkepers<br />

<strong>to</strong> be very careful of the man and went away.<br />

Our Lofd them asked the Lawyer of t he<br />

three men who showed neighbourhood <strong>to</strong> the<br />

man. The Lawyer said that it was the man<br />

who bounded the unfortunate man's wound and<br />

cared for his feeding (i e the good Samaritan).
