    A man had two sons. The younger son asked his
    father to give him the money that his father has
    promised him, and his father obliged. The
    younger son then left home and went to live in a
    ‘far country’. He soon went through all of the
    money his father had given him, through living
    in a ‘riotous’ and careless manner.

    When all his money had gone, a famine spread


    across the land, and he found himself starving.
    To support himself, he went and found work in
    the fields, feeding the pigs. He was so hungry he
    One day he realized that his father’s servants had
    bread enough to eat, and yet he had none. So he
    resolved to go home and beg for his father’s
    forgiveness, and ask his father to take him in under his
    roof as one of his hired servants.
    When the son returned home, his father saw him in
    the distance, and ran to him and kissed him.

    The son said, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven,


    and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called
    thy son. But his father ordered his servants to fetch his
    best robe, and put it on his son, and to put a ring on
    He then ordered them to prepare a fatted calf
    for their meal, so they can eat and celebrate the
    prodigal son’s return, ‘For this my son was dead,
    and is alive again; he was lost, and is found’.

    While all this merriment was going on indoors,


    the elder son was outside working in the field.
    He could hear the music and dancing and asked
    one of the servants what was going on. When he
    discovered his brother, who had run off, had
    returned, he grew angry and refused to go in
    His father came out and asked his son to come in
    and join them. But the elder son was still annoyed.
    He told his father that he had served him loyally and
    obeyed him all these years, yet he has never had a
    fatted calf, or a feast laid on for him and his friends
    to enjoy themselves. Yet as soon as the prodigal son
    returned, who had wasted his inheritance on
    carousing with women, his father had killed the
    fatted calf and, as it were, pulled out all the stops.
    The father replies that he is glad to share everything
    he owns with his son, but on this day he had to
    rejoice and celebrate, because ‘this thy brother was
