Challenging Lee’s Good Samaritan interpretation
According to Witness Lee in Luke 10:24-37 Jesus is
“Portraying Himself as the Good Samaritan with the Highest Morality” (words in quotes are the Recovery version’s header, see https://online.recoveryversion.bible...ers.cfm?cid=54) Here is Berean’s Literal translation of Luke 10 for reference https://biblehub.com/blb/luke/10.htm If Lee’s interpretation is right, why: 1) did Jesus answer the question about “what should I do to inherit eternal life?” with “what does the law say.” (Lee says he wrongly assumed he had to do something) 2) didn’t Jesus correct him when he quoted from the law? 3) when he quoted from the law did Jesus say “you have answered correctly, having done this you will live” 4) did Jesus answer the question “who is my neighbor” with a story about “a certain Samaritan” that had compassion on the robbed, beaten, naked, and half dead traveller and went out of his way to help him? Jesus wasn’t Samaritan. 5) did Jesus end his discussion with “now you go and do the same”. I realized today how much I was robbed by believing Lee’s interpretation, and how much others have been as well!
