The next day
This phrase indicates a continuation of the Good Samaritan's commitment beyond the initial act of mercy. In the Greek, "the next day" (τῇ ἐπαύριον) suggests a deliberate and ongoing concern, emphasizing the Samaritan's dedication. It reflects the Christian call to sustained compassion, not just momentary acts of kindness.

he took out
The Greek verb used here, ἐκβαλών, implies a purposeful action. The Samaritan's decision to take out money signifies intentionality and sacrifice. This act challenges believers to consider how they allocate their resources for the benefit of others, embodying the principle of stewardship.

two denarii
A denarius was a day's wage for a laborer in the Roman Empire. By giving two denarii, the Samaritan provided for the man's care for at least two days, possibly more. This generosity underscores the depth of his compassion and serves as a model for Christians to give sacrificially and abundantly.

and gave them to the innkeeper
The act of giving to the innkeeper signifies trust and delegation. The Samaritan entrusts the care of the wounded man to another, highlighting the importance of community and cooperation in ministry. It reminds believers that while they may initiate acts of mercy, they often require the support and involvement of others.

‘Take care of him,’ he said
This directive, in Greek, προσέχων αὐτῷ, is a command to provide attentive care. It reflects the heart of Christian service, which is to attend to the needs of others with diligence and compassion. The Samaritan's words echo the call to love one's neighbor as oneself, a central tenet of Christian ethics.

‘and on my return
The promise of return indicates accountability and follow-through. The Samaritan's commitment to come back and settle any remaining debts illustrates the Christian principle of faithfulness. It serves as a reminder that true compassion involves seeing a task through to completion.

I will repay you
This assurance of repayment highlights the Samaritan's integrity and responsibility. In a broader sense, it reflects the Christian belief in divine justice and reward. Believers are encouraged to trust that their acts of kindness will be honored by God, even if not immediately recognized by others.

for any additional expense.’
The phrase "any additional expense" (ὅ τι ἂν προσδαπανήσῃς) suggests an open-ended commitment to meet unforeseen needs. This reflects the boundless nature of God's love and grace, encouraging Christians to be prepared to go beyond the expected in their service to others. It challenges believers to embrace a spirit of generosity that mirrors the limitless compassion of Christ.

(35) Two pence--i.e., two denarii, according to Matthew 20:2 the average wages of a labourer for two days; or, taking the estimate of Mark 6:37, enough for a meal of twenty-five men. It was therefore a sufficient and liberal provision for all probable contingencies. This, however, was not, in the Samaritan's judgment, enough, and he gave a carte blanche for whatever else might be required.

Verses 35, 35. - And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in off and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. All these little tender details of the Samaritan's pitiful love are sketched in by a master-hand. There is first a noble, generous impulse, at once crystallized into a kindly brotherly act. Not satisfied with merely carrying out the first impulse, the Samaritan puts himself to inconvenience, perhaps to peril, and, after dressing the wounds, takes the wounded one along with him, provides lodging for him, and even takes care of the sick and friendless man's future. The wounded man was no rich and powerful merchant or noble - that is clear from the necessity of the little provision which the Samaritan made for him at the inn when he went on his journey; probably just an itinerant Jew pedlar. There were many of these always travelling about the East, we know. The piled-up acts of kindness were all clearly done to a poor stranger, without hope of recompense or reward. The life of that kindly man was evidently one which finds its high but secret guerdon in the blessedness of its own deeds. The Master trod been called by his bitter foes, in their blind rage, a "Samaritan." liras he in any way picturing himself? To an inn. The Greek word is not the same as the "inn" of Luke 2:7. It reminds us that, besides the open khan or caravanserai spoken of at Bethlehem, and which was crowded with travellers, in Palestine at this period was to be found the Greek type of inn, where a host or landlord entertained the guests. The khan was simply a group of empty buildings kept up for the use of travellers, who provided furniture and food for themselves. Throughout the Levant, Greek customs were gradually being introduced.
