The teacher of the law asked about what was the greatest commandment. Jesus answered, "What is written in the Law?" After they agreed to that answer, the lawyer asked, "Who is my neighbor?"
In response to the question, Jesus gives the Parable of the Good Samaritan
In the context of the parable,
1. Who can be a neighbor as Jesus defines being a neighbor? It would be neighborly to do part of it and not all ...according to Jesus.
2. Who else can fulfill the law besides Jesus? If your answer is "no one", then who else can be neighborly as the law describes?
3. What is the point of the parable if Jesus is the only one who can be a neighbor to 6 billion people?
