Afterwards the first son repented and went. Going out to work in the vineyard in the heat of the day was surely not an easy thing to do. Outside work in the field in Bible days was never easy. I am sure that no one relished the idea of working in the field. This first son knew that it was right to obey his father, so he went. The second son told a lie to his father and did not go. Even in the same family, sons can grow up with different characters and mentalities
