When Jesus used the word ‘neighbor’ to tell us who and how to love, he chose the biggest word possible. Neighbor is bigger than nation, bigger than tribe, bigger than family, and way bigger than self.
 
“Who is my neighbor?” in the Bible:
 
Love all these neighbors… In Leviticus 19, love…
…your poor neighbor (19:10)
…your day laborer neighbor (19:13)
…your deaf/blind neighbor (19:15)
…your neighbor of your tribe (19:16)
…your fellow Israelite neighbor (19:17)
…your neighbor who wronged you (19:18)
…your immigrant neighbor (19:33-37)
