Luk 15:27. Ὁ ἀδελφός σου, thy brother) what should have been a moving argument.-ἥκει) Hesychius says, ἥκει, i.e. ἔρχεται or ἦλθεν, he is come.-ἔθυσεν, hath killed) The servant [εἷς τῶν παίδων] is represented as mentioning the killing of the calf rather than the robe, the ring, and the shoes, because it has the chief connection [rather than these latter] with the music and dancing. It is owing to this also that the elder son alludes to it in Luk 15:30, before that he saw his brother so beautifully clothed.-ὑγιαίνοντα) Safe and sound. Jos 10:21, בשלום, in peace, which the LXX. render ὑγιής.
