Summarise the Good Samaritan story.
A man was walking down a street to get from Jerusalem to Jericho when he got robbed. The robbers took his clothes, beat him up and left him half dead. A priest came down the road, looked at the man and crossed the street so he didn’t have to help the man. Then a Levite came down the road and did the same. But when a Samaritan came down the street he saw the man and felt sorry for him. He helped the man by bandaging his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. He then put the man on his own donkey and too him to an inn. The Samaritan payed for the man to be looked after by the inn keeper and told him he would reimburse him for any expenses he has.
