Luke 15:15 NIV84, Luke 15:17 NIV84 and Luke 15:20 NIV84

"To feed swine. This was a very low employment, and particularly so to a Jew. It was forbidden to the Jews to eat swine, and of course it was unlawful to keep them. To be compelled, therefore, to engage in such an employment was the deepest conceivable degradation. The object of this image, as used by the Saviour in the parable, is to show the loathsome employments and the deep degradation to which sin leads men,"—Barnes' Notes on the New Testament

And yet so much of my heart still feeds swine when it could be at home in the Father's embrace!! Tragic. So tragic.
