Mark 10:21 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Jesus looking upon him — And looking into his heart, loved him — Doubtless for the dawnings of good which he saw in him: and said to him — Out of tender love, One thing thou lackest — The love of God, without which all religion is a dead carcass. In order to this, throw away what is to thee the grand hinderance of it. Give up thy great idol, riches. Go, sell whatsoever thou hast.

Mark 10:21

21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him,One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
