Also considering how much Jesus spoke against the man-made doctrines and traditions the Pharisees had from their Talmud and how much they elevated them above the laws of God I would say the Samaritans were right on track for rejecting the Talmud. Maybe that was the real lesson that Jesus was trying to teach that "hey your brothers who haven't added all of this other stuff, all this man-made stuff, to God's word is more on track of actually living life the way it's meant to be lived then you Jews are with all your man-made doctrines and traditions(talmud) that you have added."

The danger with the Gospel of the risen Christ has never been to exaggerated it [we can't exaggerate the goodness and grace of God enough], but underestimate it... You are blessed and appreciated!
What does that even mean?
I am not sure if I understand your question @dwells, but I think I am expounding a lot with you my dear follower. When you know you don't need to ask questions, and if you do it's to spend time talking and I have a lot to do during a day and I feel like 24 hours aren't enough for me, but I see you have some free time and you can send me some of your hours. LOL Just kidding... I am not sleeping online and my answers are always followed by something you looking I don't know where and you seem to me like a Samaritan - are you accepting only the Pentateuch
My question is what does it mean to underestimate the gospel what do you mean by that.
I have a service tonight... You can join if you have some times LIVE!
Link?
No I'm not a Samaritan in the sense that I only believe in the Torah and not the prophets. You'll pardon me if I use the Hebrew word for the first five books of the Bible instead of the Greek word.
I am a Samaritan in the sense that I am of the House of Israel. I am one of the lost sheep that Jesus said he came for. I Am The Prodigal Son called Ephraim who left his father's house and squandered his inheritance in the world and woke up in the pig pen and and realized he needed to go back to his father's house and his father welcomed him home because he was once dead but now he is alive and his big brother Judah was jealous of his little brother Ephraim.
