alluded to the story of the Prodigal Son. Furthermore, the story of the Prodigal son relates to some of the themes in the play The Merchant of Venice.

Prodigal Son is a story from the bible. This was a story about a man with two sons. The younger son, wanted an early inheritance of his share of the family estate. Once he received his inheritance, he set off on a journey to a far away place to waste is fortune on riotous living. He soon used up all of his fortune and had no money. He had no choice but to take a job in feeding pigs. Because he was desperate for food, he dreamt of eating food that he fed to the pigs and recognized his lack of sense. The young son returns home, wanting forgiveness from his father. His father forgave him and celebrated his return. Meanwhile, the older son was quite unhappy that there was a party for his younger brother. The man explained to him that his brother was dead and now alive again.

The prodigal son story is relevant in The Merchant of Venice play written by Shakespeare. Bassanio has compared himself to the prodigal son.
