and Upbringing، Biblical CommentaryDescription:The book He Spoke to Them Also in Parables: The Prodigal Son by Fr. Luke Sidarous explores the essence of repentance, showing
that Christ opened an unconditional door of hope for sinners. It demonstrates that sonship is the foundation of repentance, revealing the Father’s heart as He felt compassion, ran, fell on his neck, and kissed him, calling to rejoice over the lost who was found. The text illuminates divine grace through the best robe, ring, sandals, and fatted calf, reflecting tender paternal feelings while examining the elder son, concluding with an urgent call to embrace this eternal salvation.
