luke 18:24 And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! - Free Bible Online

luke 18:24 And Jesus looked at him and said, "How hard it is for those who are wealthy to enter the kingdom of God!


      24. when Jesus saw--Mark says (Mr 3:34), He "looked round about"--as if first following the departing youth with His eye--"and saith unto His disciples."
      How hardly, &c.--with what difficulty. In Mark (Mr 10:24) an explanation is added, "How hard is it for them that trust in riches," &c.--that is, with what difficulty is this idolatrous trust conquered, without which they cannot enter; and this is introduced by the word "children"--sweet diminutive of affection and pity (Joh 21:5).
