The subject of eternal life was a cause for concern for many Hebrew Israelites in the days of Yeshua the Messiah. All four Gospel narratives cover the subject of eternal life and Yeshua teaches on eternal life extensively in its connection with the Law. Contrary to popular teaching, the subject of eternal life did not originate in the New Testament, but was a subject of concern prior to the advent of Yeshua. Most seminary-taught theologians, denominational preachers, and teachers fail to make the connection of Yeshua’s coming and teachings to the fulfillment of what was written in the Law, the Prophets, and the writings concerning Him. In this portion of Matthew, after Yeshua spoke on the subject of children coming to Him, a rich ruler asked Yeshua a specific question concerning eternal life. Yeshua’s response to this very specific question on eternal life is one that all of Christendom should take note of!
