There Is None Who Does Good.

In this bonus episode, we look at the gospel reading which is commonly referred to as that of the Good Samaritan (Eighth Sunday of Luke in the lectionary of the Orthodox Church), making one important observation: that the word “good” is nowhere to be found in this biblical text. That might seem like a minor point, but when we consider how Jesus himself rejects being called good elsewhere in the gospels, we see that calling the Samaritan “good” is not only unwarranted by the text, but isn’t consistent with the biblical teaching either. Join me in a brief discussion of Luke 10:25-37.Original intro and outro music arranged and performed by Raphael Shaheen.
