In his parable of the prodigal son or, more correctly, the prodigal sons, Jesus again brings out the two-fold nature of sin. The younger son stands for the sins of the flesh, the sins of transgression. He was guilty of gluttony, drunkenness, licentiousness, and adultery. The elder son stands for the sins of the spirit, the sins of the disposition. He exhibited the inner attitudes of jealousy, self-righteousness, anger, unconcern, and an unforgiving spirit.
