LUKE 15:23 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:”
Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate — the fattened calf was the most valuable animal and the most festive provision — kept for the most special occasions. Let's have a feast (euphraínesthai, to be joyful, to celebrate): the father's initiative, not the son's request.
