    Was the miserable son wasteful? Why did the father not punish the young son, if he deserved it? Was the maddened son self-centered and resentful?

    Verses 11 – 19: Was the miserable son wasteful? The young son’s portion of the property was 33% (Deuteronomy 21:17). By and large, he would have gotten this at his father’s death, although fathers in some cases decided to split their property early and resign from dealing with the estates. What is ...read more
