Compare and contrast the parables of the prodigal son and the good samaritan. (luke 15: 11-24 and luke 10: 25-37)

The Prodigal Son is a story of a son who asks his father for his inheritance then instead of when his dad dies. He gets the money and goes and blows it off on worldly possessions. He wastes all the money. When a famine hits he is forced to work for someone and feed pigs. He gets paid little and has no food. He is forced to go back to his father. His father sees him from a while off and runs to meet him. He tells his servants to get the best robes and gold rings and to put them on his son. He throws a party for his son. The fathers other son gets mad because his father never threw parties for him.

The Good Samaritan is a parable about a rich Jewish man and how he has to get to a certain city. Along the way he gets mugged. A priest passes by and sees him and goes to the other side of the road, the same thing happens with a Levite. A Samaritan happens to pass by and he helps him. He takes him to an inn and pays the owner to take care of the man.

C; skin, is the answer!
