Mystified!!
The Good Samaritan Story was used to answer the question: "Who is my neighbour?" This was in the context of "Love your neighbour as yourself."
According to this interpretation you are instructed to love those that will do you a good turn.
That is a hugely disappointing interpretation.
Surely there has to be something in it along the lines of "Be a good neighbour?"
Jesus disappoints, again.
