About “The Return of the Prodigal Son”
A chance encounter with a reproduction of Rembrandt's The Return of the Prodigal Son sent Henri Nouwen on a long spiritual adventure. He shares a personal meditation probing the parable's movements: the younger son's return, the father's restoration of sonship, the elder son's vengefulness, and the father's compassion, addressing themes of homecoming and reconciliation.
