But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
Pero el hombre, queriendo justificarse a sí mismo, le preguntó a Jesús: 'Está bien, pero ¿quién es exactamente mi prójimo?'
El hombre trató de justificar su pregunta pidiendo a Jesús que definiera quién califica como su prójimo.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Gospel of Luke, a Jewish lawyer is engaging Jesus in a discussion about eternal life, prompted by Jesus' affirmation of the command to love God and one's neighbor. The lawyer's question, "Who is my neighbor?" arises from his desire to justify himself and possibly limit his responsibilities to those within his cultural or ethnic group. This occurs in first-century Jewish society, where "neighbor" was often understood as fellow Israelites, setting the stage for Jesus to challenge these narrow views through the parable of the Good Samaritan.
