Luke 10:30 "Then Jesus answered and said: "A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead."
The lawyer’s question was no trouble for Jesus. Instead, Jesus used it as the perfect setup for one of the most memorable stories in the history of the world.
This parable, which begins with the man among the thieves, is quite amazing and influential. This man that Jesus tells us about we see from the wording here comes upon a band of robbers. Presumably they had habitually stayed in that area to come upon travellers by surprise and take their valuables.
Heavenly Father, thank You for this day in which to serve You. Protect us from the evil one that we may praise You and serve You with all of our hearts. Your creation is glorious, but shows us only a fraction of Your glory. You are amazing! In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
