Summary
Stories in the Books of Genesis and Exodus tell of fathers whose sons are 'lost' to them through 'deaths' of various kinds. All these sons are lost to their fathers, some for a time, some forever. And all of them develop the theme with which the biblical narrative begins: God's first son Adam who sets in train God's long search for humanity.

Lost Sons by The Very Revd Michael Sadgrove
Stories in the books of Genesis and Exodus tell of fathers whose sons are 'lost' to them through 'deaths' of various kinds. One is murdered. Another is abandoned. A third is supplanted. A fourth is betrayed. A fifth is taken for sacrifice. A sixth is forgotten about. A seventh is secreted away. Through these accounts we trace the theme with which the biblical narrative begins: God's first son, Adam, by becoming 'lost' to his Creator, sets in train God's long search for humanity . . .
Michael Sadgrove is Dean of Durham. He has written on a range of theological subjects, and is the author of The Eight Words of Jesus (2006), Wisdom and Ministry: The call to leadership (2008) and I Will Trust in You (2009), all published by SPCK.
