Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Luke 10:33

_ _ Samaritan — one excommunicated by the Jews, a byword among them, synonymous with heretic and devil (John 8:48; see on Luke 17:18).

_ _ had compassion — His best is mentioned first; for “He who gives outward things gives something external to himself, but he who imparts compassion and tears gives him something from his very self” [Gregory the Great, in Trench]. No doubt the priest and Levite had their excuses — It is not safe to be lingering here; besides, he’s past recovery; and then, may not suspicion rest upon ourselves? So might the Samaritan have reasoned, but did not [Trench]. Nor did he say, He’s a Jew, who would have had no dealings with me (John 4:9), and why should I with him?

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Luke 10:25-37.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Luke 10:33

But a certain Samaritan came where he was — It was admirably well judged to represent the distress on the side of the Jew, and the mercy on that of the Samaritan. For the case being thus proposed, self interest would make the very scribe sensible, how amiable such a conduct was, and would lay him open to our Lord's inference. Had it been put the other way, prejudice might more easily have interposed, before the heart could have been affected.
