Sections marked generated are written from the data on this page rather than by a named author. Everything else — the lexicon entries, the cross references, the manuscript readings, the counts — is quoted from its source unchanged.
Context — The Rich Rulergenerated
Luke 18:22 captures a moment where a wealthy ruler approaches Jesus, claiming to have kept all commandments since youth. Jesus challenges him to sell all he possesses and give to the poor, promising treasure in heaven, before inviting him to follow. This interaction emphasizes the tension between wealth and discipleship, echoing themes found throughout the Gospels, such as in Matthew 19:21.

The Key Word — ἔτι, etigenerated
The Greek word ἔτι, transliterated as eti, is an adverb meaning 'yet' or 'still.' It indicates a continuation or persistence in a state or condition, as seen in contexts like Mark 14:37.
In this verse, it emphasizes that despite the ruler's adherence to the law, he is still lacking something essential for eternal life, highlighting the need for deeper commitment.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the verse uses still for ἔτι, while the King James Version opts for yet. Both convey the idea of an ongoing deficiency.
The translations consistently render the imperative verbs for selling and giving, with do sell (BSB) and sell (KJV) appearing in various forms across different versions.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The sentence is structured around the main verb εἶπεν, he said, with multiple clauses detailing what Jesus instructs the ruler to do. The first clause presents the action of Jesus speaking, followed by a series of commands and conditions.
The commands are structured as imperative verbs: πώλησον (do sell), διάδος (do distribute), and the concluding invitation to ἀκολούθει (follow). This highlights the sequential nature of Jesus' directives.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἔτι does not have a direct counterpart in the Septuagint, but its use in the New Testament reflects a common theme of ongoing action or state, similar to expressions found in the Greek translations of the Hebrew Scriptures.
The concept of giving to the poor resonates with numerous Old Testament passages, such as Deuteronomy 15:7, where care for the needy is emphasized.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Luke 18:22 shows Jesus telling a rich young ruler that he lacks one thing necessary for eternal life: he must sell all he owns, give to the poor, and then follow Him. This highlights the challenge of prioritizing spiritual wealth over material possessions.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
Quo audito, Jesus ait ei : Adhuc unum tibi deest : omnia quæcumque habes vende, et da pauperibus, et habebis thesaurum in cælo : et veni, sequere me.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

The Greek word ἀκούω, transliterated as akouo, means 'to hear' or 'to listen.' It covers a range of meanings from simply hearing sounds to understanding and obeying what is said. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, including commands to listen (e.g., Mk 4:3) and references to understanding (e.g., 1 Cor 14:2). The lexicons do not show significant disagreement.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

The Greek word οὗτος (i.e., *houtos*) is a demonstrative pronoun meaning 'this' or 'this one.' It is used to refer to something nearby or recently mentioned, often with a connotation of contempt in certain contexts. In the New Testament, it appears in various forms, such as in Matthew 3:17 and John 1:15, and can also serve to emphasize or clarify a subject.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

(2.) A Jewish Christian surnamed Justus (Col. 4:11).
Je’sus, the proper, as Christ is the official, name of our Lord. To distinguish him from others so called, he is spoken of as “Jesus of Nazareth” (John 18:7), and “Jesus the son of Joseph” (John 6:42).
This is the Greek form of the Hebrew name Joshua, which was originally Hoshea (Num. 13:8, 16), but changed by Moses into Jehoshua (Num. 13:16;
called Jestus, a Christian who was with St. Paul at Rome. (Colossians 4:11) (A.D. 57.)

In dealing with synonyms of the N. T. we plainly need not concern ourselves with such earlier, or even contemporary, uses of the words which we are discriminating, as lie altogether outside of the N. T. sphere, when these uses do not illustrate, and have not affected, their Scriptural employment. It follows from this that all those contemptuous uses of λαλεῖν as to talk at random, as one ἀθυρόστομος, or with no door to his lips, might do; of λαλιά, as chatter («Kpacia λόγου ἄλογος, Plato, Defin. 416)—for I cannot believe that we are to find this at John iv. 42—may be dismissed and set aside. The antithesis in the line of Eupolis (Meineke, /ragm. Com. Gr. p. 174), Λαλεῖν ἄριστος, ἀδυνατώτατος λέγειν, does little or nothing to illustrate the matter in hand. The distinction which indeed exists between the words may in this way be made clear. There are two leading aspects under which speech…

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

The Greek word ἔτι (eti) is an adverb meaning 'yet,' 'still,' or 'even now.' It covers various temporal aspects—present, past, and future—as well as degrees of comparison. In the New Testament, it appears in verses like Mark 5:35 and 1 Corinthians 3:3. The entries indicate its use with negatives to mean 'no longer' and in comparative phrases to enhance meaning.

εἷς is a cardinal numeral meaning 'one.' It contrasts with many and can function as a noun or adjective. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as emphasizing unity (e.g., John 10:30) or indicating exclusivity (e.g., Matthew 27:14). The entries note its use in phrases like 'one by one' and as an ordinal meaning 'first.'

λείπω, transliterated as leipo, is a verb meaning to leave or forsake, and can also imply being left behind or lacking something. It appears in various contexts, including the New Testament, where it is used to describe being wanting or deficient (e.g., James 1:4, 5; Luke 18:22). The word is built from a root that conveys the idea of absence or deficiency, and its usage spans both active and passive forms.
λείπω; [2 aor. subj. 3 pers. sing. Airy, Tit. iii. 13 TWH mrg.; pres. pass. λείπομαι; fr. Hom. down]; 1. trans. to leave, leave behind, forsake; pass. to be left behind (prop. by one’s rival in a race, hence), a. to lag, be inferior: ἐν μηδενί, Jas. i. 4 (Hdt. 7, 8, 1); [al. associate this ex. with the two under b.]. b. to be destitute of, to lack: with gen. of the thing, Jas. i. 5; ii. 15, (Soph., Plat., al.). 2. intrans. to be wanting ΟἹ absent, to fail: λείπει τί τινι, LK. xviii. 22; Tit. iii. 13, (Polyb. 10, 18, 8; al.); τὰ λείποντα, the things that remain [so Justin Mart. apol. 1, 52, ef. 32; but al. are wanting], Tit. i. 5. [Comp.: ἀπο-, δια-, éx-, ἐπι-, κατα-, ἐν-κατα-, Tept-, ὑπο-λείπω.]
λείπω. P Amh IT. 3613 (c, B.c. 135) λείπω τε τὴν ὑπερβολήν, “1 do not exaggerate” (Edd.), Pretsigke 276 τάδ᾽ ἔλυπον ᾿Ατταλάχοις Ἡρακλῆ. As showing that the distinction between the active and the middle of the verb was carefully preserved, it may be noted that “‘ the invariable expression in Anatolian epigraphy, even of the humblest class expressed in the worst Greek, is λείπειν βίον, not λείπεσθαι" (W. M. Ramsay Exp VII. vi. p. 548f.). For the act. in the intrans. sense of “am lacking,” as in Lk 182%, we may cite Epict. ii. 14. 19 τί σοι λείπει ; and for the middle construed with ἐν, as in Jas 14, cf. Prezsigke 620° (B.C. 97-96) where a temple that has received other honours is declared to be wanting in the right of asylum—Actrrec Oar δὲ ἐν τῷ μὴ εἶναι ἄσυλον. The verb is a λέγε. techn. in accounts to denote a deficiency, e.g. P Par 5911 (B.c. 160) (= Witkowski®, p. 76) λ(είπεται)…

The Greek word πᾶς (i.e., *pas*) means 'all' or 'every' and appears in various forms, including masculine, feminine, and neuter. It is used in the New Testament to denote totality, as in 'all things' or 'every kind,' and can function as an adjective or pronoun. Notably, it can also imply 'the whole' when used with definite articles, as seen in verses like Matthew 28:18.

The Greek word ὅσος (i.e., *hosos*) is a relative adjective meaning 'how much,' 'how many,' or 'how great.' It is used to express quantity, size, distance, and time, often in comparison with another quantity. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Mark 7:36 and Romans 7:1. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement regarding its meanings or uses.

From this it is an easy transition to practically the meaning ‘‘all,’’ as in 24. 89815 (A.D. 123) ὑποθέσθαι ὅσα ἔχω ἐν τῇ ᾿Οάσε[ι] κτήματα, “εἴο mortgage all my property in the Oasis” (Edd.).

πωλέω (pōleō) means to sell or barter, derived from a root suggesting trade. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, such as in Luke 17:28 and Revelation 13:17, often referring to the act of selling goods or property. The lexicons agree on its primary meaning, with no significant disagreement noted.
πωλέω, -ῶ,
[in LXX chiefly for מכר;]
to exchange or barter.
πωλέω, -&; imp. ἐπώλουν; 1 aor. ἐπώλησα ; pres. pass. πωλοῦμαι; (πέλω, πέλομαι, to turn, turn about, [Curtius § 633 p. 470], fr. which [through the noun πωλή; Lod. in Bttm. Ausf. Spr. ii. 57 bot.] πωλοῦμαι, Lat. versor, foll. by εἰς with acc. of place, to frequent a place; ef. the Lat. venio and veneo); fr. Hdt. down; Sept. for 720; prop. to barter, i. 6. to sell: absol. (opp. to ἀγοράζει), Lk. xvii. 28; Rev. xiii. 17; of πωλοῦντες (opp. to of dyopd¢ovres, buyers), sellers, Mt. xxi. 12; xxv.9; Mk. xi. 15; Lk. xix. 45; with acc. of a thing, Mt. xiii. 44; xix. 21; xxi. 12; Mk. x. 21; xi. 15; Lk. [xii. 33]; xviii. 22; xxii. 36; Jn. ii. 14,16; Acts v.1; supply αὐτόν, Acts iv. 37; αὐτά, ib. 34; pass. 1 Co. x. 25; with a gen. of price added, Mt. x. 29; Lk. xii. 6.
πωλέω. From meaning originally ‘‘put up for sale’’ (sendzfo) πωλέω came to mean simply ‘‘sell” (endo). This later sense, which alone is found in the NT, can be fully illustrated from the papyri, e.g. PSI IV. 3567 (B.c. 253-2) οὐθεὶς οὖν ἐν τοῖς τόποις πωλεῖ πρὸς σῖτον, ἀλλὰ πρὸς ἀργύριον, P Ryl LL. 1138 (Δ.1.133) μόλις πάντα τὰ ἐμαυτοῦ πωλήσας ἐδυνήθην πληρῶσαι, “I was with difficulty able to complete this by selling all my property ” (cf. Mk τοῦ), P Oxy III. 49428 (a Will—A.p. 156) ἐξέστω 80 αὐτῆς πωλεῖν καὶ ὑποτίθεσθαι ἃ ἐὰν aipfrat, ‘‘she shall have the right to ell or mortgage on her own authority whatever she chooses, "ἢ 76. VI. 03219 (late ii/A.D.) τὰ χοιρίδια χωρὶς μοῦ μὴ πώλι, “do not sell the young pigs without me,” P Tebt IT. 4215 (iii/A.p.) (= Se/ections, p. 106) θέλις αὐτὸ πωλῆσαι], πώλησον, ‘if you wish to sell it, sell it,” and P Oxy I. 83} (A.D. 327), where an egg-seller…

διαδίδωμι (diadidōmi) means to distribute or deliver, often in the context of handing something over or passing it along. It appears in various New Testament verses, including Luke 11:22 and Acts 4:35. The word is composed of the prefix δια- (through) and δίδωμι (to give), covering a range of meanings from distribution to delivery.
δια-δίδωμι ; fut. διαδιδώσω (Rey. xvii. 13 Rec.) ; 1 aor. διέδωκα ; 2 aor. impv. διάδος ; Pass., impf. 8 pers. sing. διεδίδοτο (Acts iv. 35), for which L T Tr WH read διεδίδετο (see ἀποδίδωμι) ; 1. to distribute, divide among several [cf. διά, Ο. 3]: ri, Lk. xi. 22; ri τινι, Lk. xviii. 22 (Lehm. δός) ; Jn. vi. 11 (Tdf. ἔδωκεν) ; pass. Acts iv. 35. Its meaning is esp. illustrated by Xen. Cyr. 1, 3, 7 τὸν Κῦρον λαβόντα τῶν κρεῶν διαδιδόναι τοῖς . . . θεραπευταῖς . «+ τοιαῦτα ἐποίει, ἕως διεδίδου πάντα ἃ ἔλαβε κρέα. 2) to give over, deliver: τί τινι, Rev. xvii. 13; but here GL T Tr WH have restored διδύασι (cf. δίδωμι, init.).
διαδίδωμι that the combination is new, ‘‘ but there can be little doubt that διαδέχεσθαι here has its usual sense and that the writer's meaning is that he had been deputed to visit the upper country on the praefect’s behalf :” they translate “as the deputy of . . Proculus in his visit to Egypt.” This is more like Deissmann’s ‘‘ proximus a vege” than the ordinary sense “‘succeed to.” This last may be presumed in P Flor IIT. 308!

The Greek word πτωχός (ptochos) is derived from πτώσσω, meaning to crouch or cower. It primarily refers to a beggar or someone who is poor, often in a destitute sense, and is used in both literal and metaphorical contexts. The New Testament uses it to describe physical poverty (e.g., Luke 14:13) and spiritual lowliness (e.g., Matthew 5:3).
πτωχός, -ή, -ov, (πτώσσω, to be thoroughly frizhtened, to cower down or hide one’s self for fear; hence πτωχός prop. one who slinks and crouches), often involving the idea of roving about in wretchedness [see πένης, fin.; “but it always had a bad sense till it was ennobled in the Gospels; see Mt. v. 3; Lk. vi. 20, ef. 2 Co. viii. 9” (L. and 5. 5. v. I.)]; hence 1. in class.

poor ('ebhyon, dal, `ani, rush; ptochos):
I. In the Old Testament.
The poor have great prominence in the Bible; it is said, indeed, that there should be no poor among the Hebrews because Yahweh should so greatly bless them (De 15:4 the Revised Version (British and American) and the King James Version margin); but this was only to be realized on certain conditions of obedience (De 15:5), and in De 15:11 it is said,"The poor will never cease out of the land"; but they were to see to it that none was left in destitution. The very foundation of the Hebrew religion was God's pity on a poor and oppressed people.
1. The Terms Employed:
Poor
The Mosaic legislation regarding the poor is specially important. (1.) They had the right of gleaning the fields (Lev. 19:9, 10; Deut. 24:19,21).
(2.) In the sabbatical year they were to have their share of the produce of the fields and the vineyards (Ex. 23:11; Lev. 25:6).
(3.) In the year of jubilee they recovered their property (Lev. 25:25-30).
(4.) Usury was forbidden, and the pledged raiment was to be returned before the sun went down (Ex. 22:25-27; Deut. 24:10-13). The rich were to be generous to the…
The general kindly spirit of the law toward the poor is sufficiently shown by such passages as (15:7) for the reason that (ver. 11) "the poor shall never cease out of the land." Among the special enactments in their favor the following must be mentioned: The right of gleaning. (Leviticus 19:9,10; 24:19,21) From the produce of the land in sabbatical years the poor and the stranger were to have their portion. (Exodus 23:11; Leviticus 25:6) Re-entry upon land in the jubilee year, with the limitation as to town homes. (Leviticus 25:25-30) Prohibition of usury and of retention of pledges. (Exodus 22:25-27;
Ps 12:5 41:1-3, especially cared for in the Jewish dispensation, Ex 23:6 Pr 14:31, and even more so under the gospel, Mt 25:42-45 Jas 2:5. The slight offerings required of them by the law were as acceptable as the hecatombs of the rich, Le 5:7-13 Mr 12:41-44. The gleanings of the fields, the olive trees, and the vines, were to be left for them, Le 19:9 De 24:19

The Greek word ἔχω, transliterated as echō, means 'to have' or 'to hold' and is used in various contexts, including possession, ability, and condition. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often relating to physical possession or metaphorical concepts like keeping faith or emotions. Notably, it can also refer to being pregnant, as seen in Matthew 1:18. The entries do not show significant disagreement.

PREP PREPosition
A principal thing to notice about this preposition, which in the King James Version represents about 16 Hebrew and as many Greek words and prepositions, is that, in hundreds of cases (especially in the Old Testament, but frequently also in the New Testament) in the Revised Version (British and American) the rendering is changed to more exact forms ("to," "unto," "by," "upon," "at," "with," "among," "for," "throughout," etc.; compare e.g. Ge 6:16; 13:8; 17:7,9,12; 18:1; Ex 8:17; Le 1:9, etc.); while, nearly as often, "in" is substituted for divergent forms of the King James Version (e.g. Ge 2:14; 17:11; 31:54; 40:7; 49:17; Ex…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

οὐρανός (ouranos) means heaven or sky, often referring to both the physical vault above and the spiritual realm where God and angels reside.

Notably, some lexicons mention its use in a metaphorical sense, while others focus on its physical aspects.

Later Judaism reckoned seven heavens. The apostle Paul speaks of himself as caught up into "the third heaven," which he evidently identifies with Paradise (2Co 12:2).

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word δεῦρο (i.e., *deuro*) is an adverb primarily meaning 'here' or 'hither,' often used with verbs of motion. It can also serve as an imperative, urging someone to come, as seen in various New Testament passages. Additionally, it conveys a temporal sense, meaning 'up to now' or 'hitherto.' The lexicons do not present significant disagreements regarding its usage.

In P Lond 409% (c A.D. 346) (=II. p. 289) ἄχρεις δεῦρο we have a close approach to the Pauline phrase. A form δεῦρε is found in the Attic inscriptions of B.C. 500-450 (see Meisterhans Gr. p. 146): it belongs to the same impulse that produced the plural δεῦτε, through the common imperative use. In P Oxy X. 1297) (iv/A.D.) δεῦ μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔνεγκεν τοὺς ἄμητας, “come here with him and bring the milk cakes,” we have an instance of the imperatival δεῦρο, in an apocopated form. See /ro/eg. p. 172.

ἀκολουθέω (akoloutheo) means to follow or accompany, particularly in the context of discipleship. It is derived from the word for 'following' and is often used in the New Testament to describe the act of following Jesus (e.g., Matthew 4:25). The verb typically takes a dative object, indicating the person being followed. There is a note of distinction in usage, as it replaces the verb ἕπομαι in later Greek.
ἀκολουθέω, -ῶ
(< ἀκόλουθος, following; < ἀ- cop., κέλευθος, poët., away),

Deissmann (ZAZ p. 134 ff.) has drawn attention to the parallels to the solemn use of the first personal pronoun in the Fourth Gospel that may be adduced from inscriptions and magical texts.
