From BibleWiki
31: κατα συγκυριαν δε ιερευς τις κατεβαινεν εν τη οδω εκεινη και ιδων αυτον αντιπαρηλθεν
31: And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and
when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
31: And it chanced, that a certain priest went down the same way: and
seeing him, passed by.
By chance. Accidentally, or as it happened. It means that he did
not do it with a design to aid the man that was wounded.
A certain priest. It is said that not less than twelve thousand priests and Levites dwelt at Jericho; and as their business was at Jerusalem, of course there would be many of them constantly travelling on that road.
When he saw him. He saw him lie, but came not near him.
Passed by on the other side. On the farther side of the way. Did not turn out of his course even to come and see him.
