18:18 The wealthy leader
18 One time a local leader asked Yeshua, “Good teacher, what do I need to do to gain eternal life?”
19 “Why do you call me good?” Yeshua answered. “No one is good other than God himself. 20 [ref]You know the commandments: Don’t commit adultery, don’t murder, don’t steal, don’t lie in court, and honour your parents.”
21 “I’ve obeyed all of those since I was young,” the leader replied.
22 “Then you’re lacking only one more thing,” Yeshua responded. “Sell everything you own and distribute the money to the poor and you’ll have treasure in the heavens. Then come and follow me.” 23 But when he heard this, the man was very upset because he was extremely wealthy.
24 As Yeshua looked at him, he said, “It’s so difficult for those who’re wealthy to enter into God’s kingdom— 25 it’s easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a wealthy person to enter God’s kingdom.”
26 Those around who heard asked, “Then who’s able to be saved?”
27 “What’s humanly impossible,” he replied, “is quite possible with God.”
28 Peter spoke up, “Hey, we left everything and followed you!”
29 “I can assure you all,” Yeshua responded, “that no one who left their home or spouse or siblings, or parents or children on account of God’s kingdom 30 will not be repaid many times over in this age as well as gaining eternal life in the coming age.”
