Markus 10:21

10:21 As Jesus looked at him, he felt love for him and said, “You lack one thing. Go, sell whatever you have and give the money ¹  to the poor, and you will have treasure ²  in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

Markus 10:28

10:28 Peter began to speak to him, “Look, ³  we have left everything to follow you!” ⁴ 

Markus 10:52

10:52 Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has healed you.” Immediately he regained ⁵  his sight and followed him on the road.

[10:21]  ¹ tn The words “the money” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[10:21]  ² sn The call for sacrifice comes with a promise of eternal reward: You will have treasure in heaven. Jesus’ call is a test to see how responsive the man is to God’s direction through him. Will he walk the path God’s agent calls him to walk? For a rich person who got it right, see Zacchaeus in Luke 19:1-10.

[10:28]  ³ sn Peter wants reassurance that the disciples’ response and sacrifice has been noticed.

[10:28]  ⁴ tn Grk “We have left everything and followed you.” Koine Greek often used paratactic structure when hypotactic was implied.

[10:52]  ⁵ tn Or “received” (see the note on the phrase “let me see again” in v. 51).
