Luke 15:11-32 - In Jewish tradition, the eldest son typically received a double portion of the inheritance. Thus, in this parable, the younger son would receive one-third of his father's estate. This story illustrates God's unconditional love and forgiveness, echoed in other scriptures like Romans 5:8, which emphasizes God's grace toward sinners.
