Relevance of Parables today goodsamaritan.txtthread
In Jesus’ time Israel was under the control of the Roman Empire. Hellenic culture was taking over traditional Jewish culture, and the Roman Empire had governors to rule over their provinces. There were many different groups that separated the people of Israel. People went to Jesus to ask if there was any hope for the Jews and their way of life.
The situation is similar in Australia today, with different cultures and religions mixing together and the nation\'s culture and identity changing as a result.
Jesus’ teachings, while initially based on the Jews’ dilemma, are still relevant today, at least for Australians.
