LUKE 15:13 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.”
Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living — set off for a distant country: the geographical distancing is the spatial expression of the spiritual distance. Squandered his wealth in wild living (asōtōs, wastefully, profligately): the substance (ousian, being, substance — a philosophical word for essential reality) is wasted.
