Politicians are complaining about judges not doing what politicians tell them to. This raises constitional questions about the balance between a democratically elected government and an independent judiciary.

To find out where this balance lays, we ask Jesus. Jesus gives us the parable of the Good Samaritan. This parable fits so perfectly with this complex constitutional question that I’m surprised more people haven’t referred to it. It tells us all we need to know.
