The Gospel of Luke: A Modern Reflection on the Good Samaritan

The Gospel of Luke, written around 85 AD by a steadfast friend of Paul, emphasizes Jesus’ role as a prophet and liberator for the oppressed. Through themes of joy, peace, and care for outcasts, Luke presents a compassionate image of Jesus, focusing on women and the Holy Spirit. The narrative includes parallels to contemporary stories, such as the bond between an Afghan and a Navy SEAL, highlighting the enduring message of kindness and solidarity. This reflection invites us to embody the spirit of the Good Samaritan in today's world.
