Wesley's Explanatory Notes - Luke 15:12

And 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.Give me the part of goods that falleth to me — See the root of all sin! A desire of disposing of ourselves; of independency on God! read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - Luke 15:13

And 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.He took a journey into a far country — Far from God: God was not in all his thoughts: And squandered away his substance - All the grace he had received. read more

THE PERAEAN MINISTRY, BETWEEN THE FEAST OF DEDICATION AND THE RETIREMENT TO EPHRAIM. Luke 13:22 to Luke 17:10. See Harmony, p. 101. Jesus went to the Feast of Dedication, John 10:22-40. After which, according to John 10:40, he went to beyond Jordan, (Peraea,) where John at first baptized, and there abode. Many, as John assures us, who had the original testimony of the Baptist, were convinced of its fulfilment in him, and became believers on him. Of this PERAEN MINISTRY Luke here gives an... read more

PARABLE SECOND. The Lost Piece of Money The self-forgotten sinner, the heathen, Luke 15:8-11. Jesus was the seeker not only of the Israelite publican, the sheep of the flock, who was stupid and wandering though conscious, but he sought the sinner, the heathen, perhaps, who was self-forgotten and unconscious. Both these classes he, no doubt, found here by the shores of the Jordan. The former belonged to his domestic, the latter to his foreign, mission. To this last class Luke himself may... read more

PARABLE THIRD. The Prodigal Son The knowing and wandering sinner. 11. And he said This phrase may imply, by distinctly marking off the ensuing parable, that it was spoken at a different time from the two previous. We prefer to consider all three as occurring in parts of one discourse, though perhaps separated by intervening remarks which are not recorded. It is, we think, very probable that few or none of our Lord’s discourses are reported without some abridgement. This has been called... read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 15:12

12. The younger According to a narrower view of genealogy the Jew is the older, and the Gentile the younger. But extending our view further back, we shall find that Abraham was the first Jew and that Adam was Gentile. Thence tracing the genealogy of Jesus back, according to Luke, he was the son of man, (and the word Adam in the Hebrew signifies man,) and not merely the son of Abraham. Younger of them As being least experienced and wise. His living Rather , the substance, the... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 15:13

13. Not many days after This son has set up for himself, just as man desires to be independent of God. And being so, his next purpose is a due distance, where the will of God shall never seem to reach him, and if possible beyond the reach of his eye. Gathered all together His means were now all in a movable form, not in real estate; and he was fully prepared for a profligate squander. Riotous living The word here rendered riotous is used both in Latin and Greek, and expresses the... read more
