Contextual Overview

18 And a certayne ruler asked hym, saying: Good maister, what ought I to do, to possesse eternall lyfe? 19 Iesus sayde vnto hym: Why callest thou me good? None is good, saue God onely. 20 Thou knowest the commaundementes: Thou shalt not commit adultrie, thou shalt not kyll, thou shalt not steale, thou shalt not beare false witnesse, honour thy father and thy mother. 21 And he sayde: all these haue I kept from my youth vp. 22 When Iesus hearde that, he sayde vnto hym: Yet lackest thou one thyng. Sell all that thou hast, and distribute vnto the poore, & thou shalt haue treasure in heauen, and come, folowe me. 23 When he hearde this, he was very sory, for he was very riche. 24 When Iesus sawe that he was sory, he sayde: With what difficultie shall they that haue money, enter into the kyngdome of God? 25 For it is easier for a camel to go through a nedles eye, then for a riche man to enter into the kyngdome of God. 26 And they that hearde it, sayde: And who can then be saued? 27 And he sayde: The thynges which are vnpossible wih men, are possible with God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful,.... As he might, by his looks and gestures; and perceived that he was determined not to part with his possessions, and follow him:

he said to his disciples, how hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! embrace the Gospel, and submit to the ordinances of it; deny themselves, part with their worldly substance for the cause of Christ, and interest of religion. Riches, which should be a reason for, are often a bar unto a profession of Christ, and his Gospel. This is delivered as an affirmation, or by way of assertion, :-.
