Excerpt from The Saviour of the World: Sermons Preached in the Chapel of Princeton Theological Seminary I wish to speak to you to-day Of the parable of the prodigal son, or, as it is becoming very common to call it, perhaps with greater exactness, the parable Of the lost son. I shall not read it to you again. It has already been read in the lesson for the day. And in any event it is too familiar to require that you should be reminded even Of the minuter details of the narra tive. Probably no passage Of the Scriptures is more widely known or more universally admired. The conversation and literature Of devotion are full Of allusions to it. And in the conversation and literature Of the world it has far from an unhonoured place. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
