LoJ049 ‘The Good Samaritan’
This little 2-figure set is based on one of the most famous parables told by Jesus... A travellers is waylaid by robbers who beat him and steal everything from him including most of his clothes. As he lies severely injured by the side of the road several people pass by but refuse to help the victim until a stranger, not even a countryman of the traveller, stops to help and rescue him.
The point of the story is that people should not limit their love and compassion for others to only those they know... but provide help and understanding even to those they do not know.
This set shows the kneeling good Samaritan supporting the unfortunate traveller and offering him a drink of water and aid.
