Luke 10:35-37 (NLT)
35 [Jesus continued] “The next day he [The Samaritan] handed the innkeeper two silver coins, [1] telling him, ‘Take care of this man. If his bill runs higher than this, I’ll pay you the next time I’m here.’
36 “Now which of these three would you say was a neighbour to the man who was attacked by bandits?” Jesus asked.
37 The man replied, “The one who showed him mercy.”
Then Jesus said, “Yes, now go and do the same.”

[1]
Greek, two denarii. A denarius was equivalent to a labourers full day’s wage.

DRAWING NOTES:

TIME OF DAY:
Early morning, the next day.

LIGHTING NOTES:
Cool, early morning pre-dawn light, with dark shadows.

CHARACTERS PRESENT:
Samaritan & his donkey, Hebrew victim, Inn keeper
In the original version I made the inn keeper female, but I noticed that the Bible text refers to “him”, so I needed to make the inn keeper male instead.

RESEARCH/ADDITIONAL NOTES:
There are two versions of this scene:
01) (This page) Luke 10 – Parable of the good Samaritan SET01 – Scene 05 – Parting.
The original drawing, which has rather grey/brown tones.

02) (Next page) Luke 10 – Parable of the good Samaritan SET02 – Scene 05 – Parting.
The “new” (2016) drawing, which has brighter reds, oranges & yellow tones.

As you may notice from the titles above, there are two complete sets of the 5 scenes that comprise the story of the good Samaritan. The principle difference between them is colour: SET 01 is the original series of drawings, which have rather grey/brown tones, whilst SET 02 has brighter reds, oranges & yellows throughout the series of cartoons.
