Ousia denotes the property apportioned to a son and then gathered and scattered in the story.

The two occurrences refer to property: a son asks for his allotted share, then gathers it and scatters it.

1. Property allotted and disposed of · dominant

   In Luke 15:12, the genitive singular form occurs in the son's request for the share that falls to him; the APB renders the clause "give me the share of the estate that falls to me." In Luke 15:13, the accusative singular form is what the son gathers before he journeys away and scatters it; the APB renders "there he scattered his estate while living wildly."

   Luke 15:12Luke 15:13

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB uses "estate" in both verses, first for the share requested and then for what the son scatters. This reflects the clauses' presentation rather than a precise token-by-token rendering.
