📚 Historical Context
In the Gospel of Luke, Jesus is traveling between Samaria and Galilee when He encounters ten lepers who cry out for healing. After Jesus heals them, only one man, a Samaritan considered an outsider by the Jews, returns to express thanks and glorify God. This event reflects the deep-seated cultural and religious tensions between Jews and Samaritans in first-century Palestine, where Samaritans were descendants of intermarried Israelites and outsiders.
