Marcos 10:22 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 10:22

That he lacked one thing, and especially that he should be bid to sell all that he had, and give it away; and what might add to his sadness is, that he must take up the cross of reproach, affliction, persecution, and death; his countenance fell upon this,

for he had great possessions; (See Gill on Matthew 19:22).
