Who is your neighbour?

I know, I know... I and many others have asked this question before.

I always assumed it is my fellowman as we live amongst non-believers and believers alike. I looked with new eyes at Lev. 19:18 this morning:

"You shall not take revenge nor bear any grudge against the sons of your people, but you shall love your #neighbour as yourself; I am the Lord."

"the sons of your people" and "neighbour" seems to refer to the same people.

In Luke 10:25-37 Yeshua tells the parable of the Good Samaritan in response to a question posed by a lawyer.

He illustrates the concept of neighbourliness through the actions of a #samaritan who assists a #jewish man who had been #robbed, beaten, and left on the side of the road. Despite historical animosity between Samaritans and #jews, the Samaritan shows compassion and care for the injured man, going out of his way to help him and ensure his well-being.

The Jews hated the Samaritans for their belief in Father and not becuase the Samaritans were unbelievers living amongst them. They were all believers so this parable doesn't strictly speaking show me that a non-believer is a neighbour.

No, I am not saying that we should turn our backs on non-believers as we are the light of the world. How can we shine if we have animosity towards our #fellowman.

I am merely trying to find the Scriptural definition of a neighbour.

How do you interpret the definition of "your neighbour" in "you shall love your neighbour as yourself"?

Categorization of Posts

To improve the searchability of content and facilitate the copying of some posts to the Forum and Articles sections, I've introduced a new Category option in the Publisher Box. This is one of the initial steps taken to enhance the discoverability of valuable content, ensuring it doesn't get lost over time.

Over the next few weeks, all previous posts will be automatically categorized to assist in this effort.

I've aimed to identify the most common categories, but if you think any additional categories should be added, please let me know in the comments below.

Thought for Today: Wednesday July 03

Sometimes when in need, we call a friend, but we can get a busy signal. But with Yeshua, the line is always open. Thus, with YHVH's help you can bounce back. Who knows? Your rebound may happen today.

More work done in the studio this afternoon.

"Beloved, above all I wish that thou mayest prosper and be in health,
as prospereth thy soul." 3Jn 1

Prosperity of soul is not opposed to prosperity of life.

God gives bounty in due time, and he only gives perfect gifts.

"And I will beat before his face his adversaries, and his haters I will smite."

Ps 89

And YHWH said to Moses, “Put back the staff of Aaron before the testimony, to be kept as a sign for the rebels, that you may make an end of their grumblings against me, lest they die.”
Numbers 17:10 #korach

The placement of Aaron's staff before the Ark in the Holy of Holies communicated two truths: First, that God had chosen Aaron to serve before him and no one else. Second, that Aaron's authority over Israel was linked to his role as high priest. Apart from that office, he had no special place above anyone else. In himself, Aaron was nothing special. It was only through God's election that he had any significance to the nation and God's plans.
