     These men they called Samaritans. After Sobron they called them Sobromen; after Samaria, Samaritans. They were neither Jews nor Christians nor pagans. They feared the Creator, they served Him like Jews, and they worshiped the idols like pagans. And thus they were, and their children, up to the present day. This is why they are called Samaritans.
