Portfolio 2: Good Samaritan Interpretation

Jesus criticized what it means to be good Jew and what it takes to inherit eternal life. Jesus changes the way the question is put, and makes it about not what it means to be a good Jew but what it means to be alive as a human being. He brings up being a good neighbor, and shows the personality of a true person. Jesus shows how you live is really compassion. He shows an example by telling him that people who are on top, the highest in society have a harder time seeing the suffering in others. People that have gone through that understand the opportunity of others experiences.
