very interesting getting the historical background on the Parable of the Good Samaritan...wo the background one misses out on jesus' psychologically powerful and clever message which goes far beyond being about just some charitable person who rescues or helps out a needy strangers
@studlydorightmuffin These are some of the widely known scholars in the world. You go to any REAL scholar of the New Testament, those who devote their lives to studying the text. 9.9/10 will say that the Jesus seminar misrepresents the real jesus. The jesus who did in fact die on the cross and lost his disciples years later. Look up N.T. Wright or William Lane Craig they are more than just a historical scholars.
@studlydorightmuffin They are saying that they are radical and silly. The scholarship that they do has already been dismissed by all REAL scholars. I guess it would be like a scientist coming out with a book and saying that the earth is in the center of our universe. They say things that are completely non-sensical and just down right lies.
TJS is the most absurd panel for determining a thing ever assembled, all the more because so many who buy it are not thinking of one obvious point: why don't we study brain tumors that way or quasars or ancient Greek pottery? Assemble a panel of 150, the vast majority of whom are not even close to being specialists in the named fields and then let them vote! LOL! If Chris J. Willott has something to say about Quasars, I want to here it, but if Whoopie Goldberg does, well, you know the rest.
I learned more about Jesus from the interpretation of The Good Samaritan by the Jesus Seminars then I ever expected..... check it out!

Quran:
{Surah-26-the poets (shuara)-vs-210}
and the shaitan (Satan) have not come down with it.
211-and behoves them not, and they have not the power to do (it).
212-Most surely they are far removed from the hearing of it.
213-so call not upon another god with Allah, lest you be of those who are punished.

215-and be kind to him who follows you of the believers.
216-but if they disobey you, then say: surely I am clear of what you do.
217-and rely on the mighty, the merciful,
218-who sees you when you stand up.
219-and your turning over and over among those who prostrate themselves before allah.
220-surely he is the hearing, the knowing.
