BIBLE SCHOOL LESSON
November 2 x
By M. S. Brig-gs
The Prodigal Son
This lesson is one which all men
have used during the ages and which
mary different interpretations have
been placed. This lesson is nppuc-
l.le to o;;r time and all Bible lessons
r hu-.mity have not ci anged dur
ing the ages. The same selfishness

and ciosire icr worm puwi-rs un"

Ka s r. For this sin they both had
to piy and they both pulled thou
sand-; times thousands down causing
then also to suffer for their sins.
The Father and the F-n question
comes to the fore. Tne respectabil
ity o? the one and th lojality and
obedi nee of the other. TI.h son
inherits from the Frther and in this
case lie demanded of the Father that
portion cf -the substance which
should fall to him which m this
c.se was one-third which was to fall
to 1 im when the father should die
if it was not due before. But the
father saw that when the eon de
marded this he would he of no more
us rt the home so he divided rm o
hin his living. There were other
things that were his and w won'-e
did he gather all there was good
training. The teaching of honor, re
sp ct and obedience. Did the son get
these. There are some people who
h(ld that notwithstanding all rhe
gocd council and care some boys will

sinned also. Almost immediately af

cverv home should give, instructions
in the ways of life, he would not
have spent his all in riotous living,
but he did and it was soon gone.
Nothing left, this young man. like
many of our day, thought he would
have a good time and he spent his
money right and left. Everybody
must join while the money lasted.
Finally it was gone and as so often
happens some other calamity came
along. This time it was a crop fail
ure. The young man was broke, the
country w.s also in a bad condition,
lie was out of money and hungry.
Again in this Instance he was a Jew
and was among the Gentiles. lie
finally found a part of a job. He
got a place with a hog raiser, a
rtranere position for a Jew, but he
was hungry and broke. lie went to
work and as he drove the hogs to
their feed and they tackled the lo
cust pods, not a very good food, as
the swine ate with evident satisfac
tion and relish, he thought: "What
have I done. I had a good home, a
loving mother and a kind father. He
now has to hire someone to help run
the farm. Maybe a stranger. Still,
as I remember father was always
kind to the hired help and furnished
them a good home with plenty to
eat." As he studied over the matter
he thought. "How I would like to
have that kind of a job and I believe
father would give me a place to
work and pay me wages. I know
I have no cause to expect he will
give me a place only his great love.
Still I do not want to ask that he
take me back only upon the condi
tion that I work Just like any other
rervant and I will go back and make
good as I have wronged them all."
He puts his notion into action and
immediately starts home, not to ask
anvthir.g of the father except a
chance to work and make good. i
Well, how about tinners at home.
The younger son had taken his por
tion and gone to a far country. The
father and mother had married him
when he went away and had looked
out in the direction where he had
disappeared and wondered how son
is getting along. Is he working, has
he the comforts of a home? Is he
in good company. We hope so.
Everyone coming at a distance is
eagerly watched to see if our boy is
coming home. Until finally someone
comes over the hill along the road
that leads to home. The intuition
tells the father, who is watching,
that the long lost boy is dead. The
home folks were coming home. Joy
lights up the face of father and
mother and home they race down the
road to meet our boy. The father,
who has outran mother and falling
on the son's neck, kissed him which
meant that all the past was forgiven
and he was welcomed home again.
The son true to his purpose, was be
ginning to say, "Father, I have sin
ned against you and mother. I Lave
d'shonored you and I have no right
to even be called your son." Here
the father stopped him and said:
Bring a robe and put on him, put
shoes on his feet and a ring for his
hand and a seal on it that he may
be restored again to sonship. To the
servant he said. Go bring the fatted
calf and we will have a merry time,
for our son who was dead to us is
here again, and the5 made merry.
So like is the Heavenly Father, re
joiced over one sinner that repent
eth. All he asks is repentance, ack
