Luke 10

The Good Samaritan Bible Crossword

15×15 grid · Easy · Ends on Luke 10:27

A lawyer asks who counts as a neighbour and gets a story instead of a definition. A man goes down from Jerusalem to Jericho and falls among thieves; two men who should stop don't; the one nobody expected does. The Good Samaritan turns Luke 10 into a grid — the road, the priest, the Levite, the oil and wine poured into the wounds, the two pence left with the host.

Parables make particularly good crosswords, because the details are the argument: it matters that it was a Samaritan, and it matters that he paid. Finish the grid and the puzzle closes on the verse the whole parable was told to answer.
