Luke's special parables are rarely studied in this way, but the results of this study are very fruitful. The unity of the parable is supported, and it is shown to be deeply concerned with a major Lukan theme: the right use of possessions. The whole parable is read in terms of the moral topos 'on covetousness', and shown to be an endorsement of the Graeco-Roman virtue of liberality, modified by the Christian virtue of compassion. 410 0$aJournal for the study of the New Testament.$pSupplement series ;$v187. 606 $aProdigal son (Parable) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aProdigal son (Parable) 676 $a226.806 700 $aHolgate$b David A.$0890087 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461071203321 996 $aProdigality, liberality and meanness in the parable of the prodigal son$91988529 997 $aUNINA
