ISB ~ Matthew 19 v24
easier for a camel:A parable of impossibility. Jesus thus warns that extreme difficulties face the rich and threaten their entrance into the kingdom. Only with God’s help (19:26) can the wealthy detach themselves from the love of money and material possessions (5:3; 1 Tim 6:9-10; Jas 5:1-6). The young man’s refusal (19:22) to embrace poverty proves Jesus’ point (CCC 2053).
