Suppose this lawyer, right after questioning Jesus, saw a man half dead in the road. What do you think this lawyer would do?
If he is truly a righteousman, he would do to help, the lawyer knows the right and wrong, the good and bad rules and he is following the good rules, if he saw a man laying down on the street he has a rigth to help for he knows the compassion of a helpless.

Who is your neighbor?
My neighbor is any other humanbeing in problems. By: Bol Joseph Agau - October 30, 2006 - Public Category: The Parable of the Good Samaritan
Behold, a certain
lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to
inherit eternal life?"
He said to him, "What is written in the law? How do you read
it?" He answered,
"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your
soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as
yourself."
He said to him, "You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will
live." But he, desiring to
justify himself, asked Jesus, "Who is my neighbor?"
Jesus answered, "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho,
and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and
departed, leaving him half dead. By chance a certain priest was
going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
In the same way a Levite
also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.
But a certain Samaritan,
as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with
compassion, came to him,
and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own
animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. On the next day, when he
departed, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to
him, 'Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you
when I return.' Now
which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell
among the robbers?" He said, "He who
showed mercy on him."
Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do
likewise."
