Why the answer is C, and why the others tempt you.
Jesus told the Parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:25-37 to answer the question 'Who is my neighbour?' The Samaritan, despite ethnic and religious differences with the Jewish victim, showed mercy. The parable teaches that genuine love for one's neighbour knows no racial, ethnic, or religious boundaries.
