Luke 15

The Prodigal Son Read: Luke 15:1-32

  • Basic
  • Gerald M. Bilkes

The parable of the prodigal son illustrates the gospel of God’s free grace and forgiveness. As Jesus told it in Luke 15, we see our state of lostness and how God finds us. When God's grace brings about repentance, it leads to a great celebration.

The Parable of the Prodigal Father: An Interpretive Key to the Third Gospel (Luke 15:11-32)

  • Semi-Technical
  • Trevor J. Burke

Is the parable in Luke 15:11-32 primarily about a son or a family? This article chooses to approach the parable from the perspective of the father and not the son. It calls attention to the generous actions of the father in the parable. This parable is then placed against the background of the larger understanding of the excessive goodness of God, as expressed in the Gospel.

Luke 15:11-32 – Repentance and Conflict in the Parable of the Lost Son

  • Semi-Technical
  • Greg Forbes

There is a continued disagreement over the interpretation of the parable of the lost son in Luke 15:11-32. In particular, there is disagreement as to whether the first section deals with the theme of repentance or not. Another point of disagreement is whether in the second part the elder son serves as a referent for the Jewish religious leaders. Forbes wants to analyze the story, keeping these two issues in mind.
