This metaphor speaks of the son being gone as if he was lost. See how you translated this phrase in [Luke 15:24](./22.md). AT: "it is as if this brother of yours was lost and now I found him" or "this brother of yours was lost and has returned home" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
