Contextual Overview

18 A certain ruler asked him, saying, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" 19 Yeshua asked him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good, except one -- God. 20 You know the mitzvot: 'Don't commit adultery,' 'Don't murder,' 'Don't steal,' 'Don't give false testimony,' 'Honor your father and your mother.'" 21 He said, "I have observed all these things from my youth up." 22 When Yeshua heard these things, he said to him, "You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have, and distribute it to the poor. You will have treasure in heaven. Come, follow me." 23 But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich. 24 Yeshua, seeing that he became very sad, said, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God! 25 For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." 26 Those who heard it said, "Then who can be saved?" 27 But he said, "The things which are impossible with men are possible with God."
