Some Jewish people despised the Samarians [Samaritans] and the idea of the story is to not judge anyone for maybe it is possible to be saved from death from your so called worst enemy...also Jesus said that "if You only like those who like You then what reward is there in that"...Jesus also said "if You do not humble yourself like a little child then you may never even enter the Kingdom of Heaven"... I think Jesus was trying to say that everyone is inclusive in God's world and there are no special cases we are all God's children and thus for equal...Jesus also told the Zealot's that they should forgive all the people who persicute and murder You ie "the Romans" "forgive them all" "The lion shall lie down for the lamb"

What did the Good Samaritan use to treat the man's wound with?

The Samaritan "bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine upon them." (Luke 10:34) This was a customary way to care for injuries. Olive oil would soften and soothe the wounds. But what about wine? The Journal of the American Medical Association said: "Wine was a principal medicine in Greece. . . . Hippocrates of Cos (460-370 BC) . . . made extensive use of wine, prescribing it as a wound dressing, a cooling agent for fevers, a purgative, and a diuretic." Jesus' illustration alluded to the antiseptic and disinfectant properties of wine, as well as the effectiveness of olive oil in helping to heal wounds.

What is the significance of the parable of the ten minas in understanding the concept of stewardship and accountability in the teachings of Jesus?

The parable of the ten minas in the teachings of Jesus emphasizes the importance of being responsible stewards of the resources and opportunities we are given. It highlights the idea that we are accountable for how we use and invest what we have been entrusted with, and that we will be judged based on our faithfulness and diligence in managing these gifts. This parable challenges us to use our abilities and resources wisely for the greater good and to actively work towards growing and multiplying them, rather than simply preserving or hoarding them.


How might one apply the parable of the three stewards to the human relationship with the environment?

This is a parallel that we can draw from that parable. The parable was not meant for the conclusion we draw from it of human environmental relationship. It is meant for our use of the talents that Jesus has given us to promote His Kingdom. The useless steward was not afforded a place in heaven as he did not use his talent to help others to an understanding of Jesus' kingdom. Take that as a warning because Jesus wants us to do the same. If we neglect to act we will end up in serious trouble The parallel to the environment is that we ARE STEWARDS of our individual sphere of influence and we are mandated to take good care of what Jesus lent us to use. It encompasses our entire scope of life, but for this time I would confine to our environment.
