Giải thích cho trẻ em

Imagine you have lots and lots of toys, but someone tells you that if you really want to be happy, you need to give them all away. That's how this young man felt when Jesus told him something similar - he had so many things he didn't want to let go of.

Bối cảnh lịch sử

Matthew wrote this Gospel likely around the late first century AD for a primarily Jewish-Christian audience. The cultural setting was one where wealth often signified God’s favor, and thus giving up possessions was seen as a significant sacrifice.
