Samaria 9:00 p.m. Samaritan Daylight Time
This is Jonah Ammitai, your man on the beat for the Messiah Madness. I’m here in lowly Samaria, trying to get a feel for the local culture and to get to the bottom of the so-called parable that Messianic candidate Jesus shared with us not long ago about a “good Samaritan” who helped a fellow-man in need.
Jesus seems to have a flair for these parable-styled narratives. He uses this style of elucidation often on the campaign trail, and it’s got everyone talking.
I’ve spoken with several citizens, prominent and common, and not one of them can give me any indication that the story is based on an actual person. They are all, however, pleased to finally hear a story in which the Samaritan character is the hero.
Jesus is polling strongly in Samaria tonight, and is expected to hold his lead at least through the first debate. Can he maintain these numbers beyond that point? Only time will tell.
