The Thiefs from the Parable about The Good Samaritan, 1554, Graphic Art, Copper Engraving, Robbers attacked a man on his way from Jericho to Jerusalem. First they stripped him of his raiment, and then they wounded him. After this, they departed, leaving the man lying there half dead. The print illustrates a passage from the parable Jesus told when asked by a so-called lawyer how to achieve eternal life. Jesus answered him with the parable about the Good Samaritan. (St. Luke 10, 25-37) This tells how several passers-by left the man lying there until finally a Samaritan came along
