Doesn't the actions of the Good Samaritan confirm the Natural Law? This law is written on every human heart I believe. Did the priest and Levite disregard their own conscience and pass by of their own free-will? Or were they caught up in appearances, since many passed on this road? Thank you!
The case of the “Corban" refers to the biblical teaching in Mark 7:11-13 where Jesus condemns the tradition of corban, a vow dedicating property to God, which allowed people to avoid supporting their parents by declaring their potential resources "Corban" (given to God) instead. This legalistic tradition, upheld by some Jewish scribes, opposed the commandment to honor one’s parents.

I think so.
The ignorant face their own judgment...
...our own works matter, I think.
