15:27 The slave replied, ¹  ‘Your brother has returned, and your father has killed the fattened calf ²  because he got his son ³  back safe and sound.’

[15:27]  ² tn See note on the phrase “fattened calf” in v. 23.

[15:27]  ³ tn Grk “him”; the referent (the younger son) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
