Jesus used the priest and Levite in the Parable of the Good Samaritan to illustrate the failure of religious leaders to show compassion and mercy. By highlighting their indifference to a wounded man in need, He emphasized that true righteousness is not merely about religious status or adherence to laws, but about actively helping others. This contrast served to challenge societal norms and encourage listeners to embody love and kindness, regardless of social or ethnic boundaries.
