Thanks. When I read about the Jewish law and what they “could,have done” to,the son if theynhad found him guilty, which they no doubt would have, I likened them to the evil one, the accuser, who stand and points out our sins and condemns us before,God, but God says that we are forgiven in front of all the accusers, just like,the father of,the story does, only the father did so at great risk, knowing the townsfolk might turn on him too, but he counted the cost, lowered himself “by running”, and ran tl forgive eagerly, jusy like christ does when we come to the end of ourselves.

Just gave the parable a whole nother level of intimate-ness between myself and the saviors willingness to eagerly run to us in forgiveness with joy in his heart.
