 So maybe that could be a note of encouragement for any of you out there who are in a similar situation. Just think of Jesus giving this parable and talking about how it was just this one person who did what anyone else could have done and should have done, and he wound up doing it. And the key to the whole thing, of course, is that he's a Samaritan. He was an outcast. He was somebody who would not be smiled upon or accepted in polite Jewish society.
