Answer Details
In the parable of the Prodigal Son, the elder brother's reaction upon the return of his younger brother illustrated the behavior of the Pharisees. The Pharisees were known for their strict adherence to the Law and belief in moral superiority over others, and similarly, the elder brother felt entitled to a greater reward for his own obedience to their father. The Pharisees also criticized Jesus for spending time with sinners and tax collectors, just as the elder brother criticized his father for welcoming back his wayward brother.
