The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Luke 15:20-24

The return: v. 20. And he arose and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. v. 21. And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. v. 22. But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet; v. 23. and bring hither the fatted... read more

3. The Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32)11And he said, A certain man had two sons: 12And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. 13And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living. 14And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want. 15And he went and joined... read more

Luke THE PRODIGAL AND HIS FATHER Luk_15:11 - Luk_15:24 . The purpose of the three parables in this chapter has to be kept in mind. Christ is vindicating His action in receiving sinners, which had evoked the murmurings of the Pharisees. The first two parables, those of the lost sheep and the lost drachma, appeal to the common feeling which attaches more importance to lost property just because it is lost than to that which is possessed safely. This parable rises to a higher level. It appeals... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 15:11-24

the Son Who “Came to Himself” and to His Father Luke 15:11-24 The pearl of parables! Too often we desire God’s gifts apart from Himself. The far country is not far in actual distance, but in the alienation of the heart. You may be living in a pious home and yet be in the far country. Sin is waste. The far country is always swept by famine, because our soul was made for God and cannot live on husks. Neither things nor people can really appease our awful hunger if we are away from God. Sin... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 15:1-32

Our Lord's attitude toward the sinning multitudes aroused the hostility of the Pharisees, and to them principally He uttered the great discourse of this chapter, consisting of a threefold parable. In its entirety it constitutes a wonderful revelation of the divine heart. In the first phase, that of the Shepherd, the aspect of grace in the work of the Son is revealed. In the second, the aspect of grace is revealed in the work of the Spirit. The third phase of the parable necessarily unveils... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Luke 15:1-24

Christ Seeking To Save Luke 15:1-24 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The story of the prodigal son is one part of a threefold parable. 1. We have the shepherd suffering as he seeks his sheep. The parable describes the ninety and nine safely corralled at home, while the one was wandering far from the fold. Out into the wilderness the faithful shepherd went, seeking the sheep that was lost. He sought until he found that which was lost, and then, laying it upon his shoulders he brought it home with... read more

The Prodigal Son Luke 15:11-24 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The fifteenth chapter of Luke presents one parable with four outstanding messages, embracing one supreme thought. The supreme thought is Christ's answer to the charge of the Pharisees and the Scribes. He had come to eat with the publicans and sinners. The Scribes murmured saying, "This Man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them." The Lord Jesus in order to vindicate Himself, in His preaching to, and eating with the outcasts of Israel, gave... read more

THE PRODIGAL SON‘He came to himself.’ Luke 15:17 I. Let us follow the sinner in his rebellion.—Mark that—( a) Sin is vicious in principle.( b) Sin is ruinous in operation.( c) Sin is ever multiplying its destructive issues. II. Let us watch the sinner in his repentance.—There are four elements of repentance here requiring analysis.( a) Reflection. ‘And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare!’ Sin creates a sort of moral... read more

Men Must Live In The Light Of The Coming Of The Son of Man In His Glory (15:1-19:28). Having established in Section 1 that Jesus was born in Bethlehem in the city of David where He was proclaimed ‘Saviour’ and ‘Lord Messiah’; and in Section 2 that as ‘the Son of God’ Jesus had faced His temptations as to what His Messiahship would involve and defeated the Tempter; and that in Section 3 He had proclaimed in parables the secrets of ‘the Kingly Rule of God’; and had in Section 4 taught His... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 15:11-32

The Parable of The Loving Father, The Prodigal Son and the Dissatisfied Brother (15:11-32). When we come to the third parable there is a different emphasis in that the emphasis is laid, not on the seeking out of the person involved, (that has already been made clear in the previous two parables), but on his repentance, and on the father who is longing for his son’s return, and on the contrast with the elder brother who is angry when his younger wastrel brother is rapturously received. But it... read more
