'Pity' in the Bible
But a Samaritan (foreigner), who was traveling, came upon him; and when he saw him, he was deeply moved with compassion [for him],
He answered, “The one who showed compassion and mercy to him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and constantly do the same.”
So he got up and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion for him, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.
And he cried out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in severe agony in this flame.’
and they raised their voices and called out, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”
So he shouted out, saying, “Jesus, Son of David (Messiah), have mercy on me!”
Those who were leading the way were sternly telling him to keep quiet; but he screamed all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
