And yet look at the text. It doesn t end with the return of the prodigal. Almost half of the story is about the older son. The story is about two sons, who are both alienated from the father, who are both assaulting the unity of the family. Jesus wants us to compare and contrast them. The younger son is lost that is easy to see. We see him shaming his father, ruining his family, sleeping with prostitutes, and we say, yes, there s someone who is spiritually lost.
