Lucas 18:22

22 Al oír esto, Jesús añadió:—Todavía te falta una cosa: vende todo lo que tienes y repártelo entre los pobres, y tendrás tesoro en el cielo. Luego ven y sígueme.

Lucas 18:22 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 18:22

Now when Jesus heard these things
That he had kept all these commandments, and that ever since he was a child, and to that very time:

he said unto him, yet lackest thou one thing;
not but that he lacked many other things, and even every thing: for he had performed no one thing as it should be: but Christ said, partly in answer to his pert question, "what lack I yet?" and partly by an ironical concession, granting he had kept them all, as he had said, yet one thing was wanting; and chiefly with a view to mortify his pride and vanity:

sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou
shalt have treasure in heaven, and come and follow me;
(See Gill on Matthew 19:21).

Lucas 18:22 In-Context

20 Ya sabes los mandamientos: “No cometas adulterio, no mates, no robes, no presentes falso testimonio, honra a tu padre y a tu madre”.
21 —Todo eso lo he cumplido desde que era joven —dijo el hombre.
22 Al oír esto, Jesús añadió:—Todavía te falta una cosa: vende todo lo que tienes y repártelo entre los pobres, y tendrás tesoro en el cielo. Luego ven y sígueme.
23 Cuando el hombre oyó esto, se entristeció mucho, pues era muy rico.
24 Al verlo tan afligido, Jesús comentó:—¡Qué difícil es para los ricos entrar en el reino de Dios!
