Israel, the community to which Jesus belonged, took its name from
their patriarch Jacob. His story of exile and return was their
story as well. In the well-known tale of the prodigal son, Jesus
reshaped the story in his own way and for his own purposes. In this
work, Kenneth E. Bailey compares the Old Testament saga and the New
Testament parable. He unpacks similarities freighted with
theological significance and differences that often reveal Jesus'
particular purposes. Drawing on a lifetime of study in both Middle
Eastern culture and the Gospels, Bailey offers here a fresh view of
how Jesus interpreted Israel's past, his present and their future.
