7. Good Samaritan: Gift of Vincent and Frances Krason Family. This window portrays that famous parable in the Gospel of Luke and answers the question put to Jesus: "Who is my brother or sister?" A man on his way to Jericho from Jerusalem was attacked by thieves who stole
everything he had and beat him severely. A priest and a Levite saw him, but
neither helped. A Samaritan, who also saw him, was moved with compassion.
He stopped, dressed the man’s wounds, put the man on his beast, brought
the man to the inn, instructed the innkeeper to care for the wounded man,
gave some money to the innkeeper for the care of wounded man and stated that
on his way back he would compensate the innkeeper for any additional expenses. |
