Luke 10:11-32

‘We are wiping off even the dust of your town that clings to our feet as a witness against you.   Know this for certain: The kingdom of God has come near.’ I tell you, on that day   it will be more tolerable for Sodom   than for that town.   “Woe   to you,   Chorazin!   Woe to you, Bethsaida!   For if the miracles   that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon,   they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.   But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment   than for you. And you, Capernaum,   will you be exalted to heaven?   No, you will go down to Hades.   Whoever listens to you listens to me.   Whoever rejects you rejects me.   And whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent me.”   The seventy-two  , returned with joy, saying,  “Lord, even the demons  submit to us in your name.”  He said to them, “I watched Satan   fall from heaven like lightning.   Look, I have given you the authority   to trample   on snakes   and scorpions   and over all the power of the enemy;   nothing at all will harm you.   However, don’t rejoice that   the spirits   submit to you,   but rejoice that your names are written   in heaven.” At that time  he  rejoiced in the Holy  Spirit  and said, “I praise   you, Father,   Lord of heaven and earth,   because you have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent   and revealed them to infants.   Yes, Father, because this was your good pleasure.   , All things have   been entrusted to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son desires   to reveal him.”   Then turning to his disciples he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see the things you see! For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see the things you see but didn’t see them; to hear the things you hear but didn’t hear them.”   Then  an expert in the law  stood up to test  him, saying, “Teacher,  what must I do to inherit eternal life? ”  “What is written in the law? ” he asked him. “How do you read it? ” He answered, “Love the Lord your God   with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,”   and “your neighbor as yourself.”   , “You’ve answered correctly,” he told him. “Do this and you will live.”   But wanting to justify himself,  he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor? ”  Jesus took up the question and said, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him, beat him up, and fled, leaving him half dead. A priest happened to be going down that road. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side. In the same way, a Levite, when he arrived at the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.
