Marc 10:26

Listen to Marc 10:26
26 Et ils furent encore plus étonnés, et ils se disaient l'un à l'autre: Et qui peut donc être sauvé?

Marc 10:26 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 10:26

And they were astonished out of measure
They were still more amazed, their surprise increased exceedingly upon our Lord's using the above comparison; which, in their apprehension, showed, that it was utterly impossible for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God; and they expressed their astonishment,

saying, among themselves, who then can be saved?
in the Messiah's kingdom, if rich men are not? (See Gill on Matthew 19:25). The Persic version renders it, "how can this man be saved?" as if the words had a particular respect to the young man, that had great possessions, and was gone away sorrowful.

Marc 10:26 In-Context

24 Et ses disciples furent étonnés de ce discours. Mais Jésus, reprenant la parole, leur dit: Mes enfants, qu'il est difficile à ceux qui se confient dans les richesses d'entrer dans le royaume de Dieu!
25 Il est plus aisé qu'un chameau passe par le trou d'une aiguille, qu'il ne l'est qu'un riche entre dans le royaume de Dieu.
26 Et ils furent encore plus étonnés, et ils se disaient l'un à l'autre: Et qui peut donc être sauvé?
27 Mais Jésus, les regardant, leur dit: Cela est impossible aux hommes, mais non à Dieu; car toutes choses sont possibles à Dieu.
28 Alors Pierre se mit à lui dire: Voici, nous avons tout quitté, et nous t'avons suivi.
