Galatians 3:28

28 There is no room for Jew or Greek, there is no room for slave or freeman, there is no room for male and female; you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Luke 10:29-42

29 Anxious to make an excuse for himself, however, he said to Jesus, "But who is my neighbour?" 30 Jesus rejoined, "A man going down from Jerusalem to Jericho fell among robbers who stripped and belaboured him and then went off leaving him half-dead. 31 Now it so chanced that a priest was going down the same road, but on seeing him he went past on the opposite side. 32 So did a Levite who came to the spot; he looked at him but passed on the opposite side. 33 However a Samaritan traveller came to where he was and felt pity when he saw him; 34 he went to him, bound his wounds up, pouring oil and wine into them, mounted him on his own steed, took him to an inn, and attended to him. 35 Next morning he took out a couple of shillings and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, 'Attend to him, and if you are put to any extra expense I will refund you on my way back.' 36 Which of these three men, in your opinion, proved a neighbour to the man who fell among the robbers?" 37 He said, "The man who took pity on him." Jesus said to him, "Then go and do the same." 38 In the course of their journey he entered a certain village, and a woman called Martha welcomed him to her house. 39 She had a sister called Mary, who seated herself at the feet of the Lord to listen to his talk. 40 Now Martha was so busy attending to them that she grew worried; she came up and said, "Lord, is it all one to you that my sister has left me to do all the work alone? Come, tell her to lend me a hand." 41 The Lord answered her, "Martha, Martha, 42 Mary has chosen the best dish, and she is not to be dragged away from it."
