Can someone give me a summary about the odyssey, part 1 ? ?

In a nutshell, Odysseus who is help captive by Calypso who wants him for her husband. Hermes then orders Calypso to release Odysseus on the orders of Zeus. Odysseus then leaves the island and begins making his way back to Ithaca where his wife is being plagued by suitors. His son Telemachus thinks his father is dead until the goddess Athena with Zeus's consent travels to Ithaca disguised as a friends of Odysseus and tells Telemachus that his father is alive and will return soon and gives him instructions on what to do on account of the suitors.

Hope this helps,

11-32. the main character in the parable, the forgiving father, whose character remains constant throughout the story, is a picture of god. in telling the story, jesus identifies himself with god in his loving attitude to the lost. the younger son symbolizes the lost (the tax collectors and sinners of that day, luke 15: 1), and the elder brother represents the self-righteous (the pharisees and teachers of the law of that day, luke 15: 2). the major theme of this parable seems not to be so much the conversion of the sinner, as in the previous two parables of luke 15, but rather the restoration of a believer into fellowship with the father. in the first two parables, the owner went out to look for what was lost (luke 15: 1-10), whereas in this story the father waits and watches eagerly for his son's return. we see a progression through the three parables from the relationship of one in a hundred (luke 15: 1-7), to one in ten (luke 15: 8-10), to one in one (luke 15: 11-32), demonstrating god’s love for each individual and his personal attentiveness towards all humanity. we see in this story the graciousness of the father overshadowing the sinfulness of the son, as it is the memory of the father’s goodness that brings the prodigal son to repentance (romans 2: 4).
