Re:Verse passage – Luke 10:25-37 (day six)
Little did the expert know, the answer to his question was staring him in the face. Jesus is not only the means through whom the expert could inherit eternal life, but he also is the very embodiment of both great commandments.
Jesus’ arrival in Bethlehem over 2000 years ago was the real life Good Samaritan. Seeing all of us fractured and left for dead, he drew near to tend to our death dealing self-inflicted wounds. He is our good and merciful and loving neighbor.
He is Immanuel, God with us. He is the way, the truth, and the life.
If only the expert of the law had known all that; grateful we do!
Merry Christmas!
