Contextual Overview
18 And a certain, ruler, questioned him, saying - Good Teacher! by doing what, shall I inherit life age-abiding? 19 But Jesus said to him - Why, callest thou me, good? None, is good, save one - God. 20 The commandments, thou knowest: - Do not commit adultery, Do not commit murder, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, - Honour thy father and mother, 21 And, he, said - All these things, have I kept from my youth. 22 And Jesus, hearing, said unto him - Yet one thing, unto thee, is lacking: Whatsoever thou hast, sell, and distribute unto the destitute, - and thou shalt have treasure in theheavens; and come! be following me. 23 But, he, hearing these things, became, encompassed with grief; for he was rich exceedingly. 24 And Jesus, beholding him, said - With what difficulty, shall, they who have money, enter, into the kingdom of God. 25 For it is, easier, for a camel, to enter, through the eye of a needle, than for, a rich man, to enter, into the kingdom of God. 26 And they who heard said - Who, then, can be saved? 27 And, he, said - The things impossible with men, are, possible with God.

lo, we have left all: the Arabic version reads, "all ours"; all we had, our friends, trades, and worldly substance;
and followed thee: in Matthew 19:27 it is added, "what shall we have therefore"; referring to the promise of Christ, to the young man, that should he sell all he had, and give it to the poor, he should have treasure in heaven; Matthew 19:27- :.
