A father, knowing he didn’t have long to live, called his three sons to him and told them he needed to choose one to inherit his land. He said, “Go to the market and buy something that’s large enough to fill my bedroom but small enough to fit in your pocket. Based on this, I’ll decide which of you is the wisest and most worthy to inherit my property.” Each son went to the market and returned with a different item. The father instructed each son to enter his bedroom and try to fill it with what they had bought. The first son came in and laid pieces of cloth on the floor, but it barely covered the room. The second son came in and spread hay on the floor, but it only covered half of it. The third son entered, showed what he had bought, and was chosen to inherit the land. What did the third son bring?
