Contradiction with Matthew 5:44
Jesus instructs to love your enemies, which contrasts with the limited scope of the Samaritan's aid in Luke 10:33, where the focus is on helping a specific individual rather than universally applying compassion to adversaries.
Matthew 5:44: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Contradiction with Matthew 15:24
Jesus mentions being sent only to the lost sheep of Israel, which appears to contradict the Samaritan's cross-cultural compassion in Luke 10:33.
Matthew 15:24: But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Contradiction with John 4:9
Jews generally had no dealings with Samaritans, creating a cultural contradiction to the Samaritan's willingness to help in Luke 10:33.
John 4:9: Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
Contradiction with Romans 12:19
This verse advocates for leaving vengeance to God, indirectly contrasting with Luke 10:33 where personal action and responsibility in aiding a stranger in need is emphasized.
Romans 12:19: Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but [rather] give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance [is] mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
Paradox #1
The moral conflict in Luke 10:33 might arise from the challenge of always acting with compassion across social or cultural boundaries. Some people might find it difficult to help others who are different from them or whom they are taught to dislike. The teaching encourages kindness to all, highlighting that our prejudices can conflict with the idea of loving and helping everyone.
