What is the Eye of the Needle and what s it got to do with Rich Men Matthew 19:24 BIBLE STUDY
SUPPORT THE SHOW: Reference this lesson and find out more here: Jesus states in Matthew 19:24 it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God. A popular explanation has claimed that the eye off the needle is an actual city gate and the parable is about entering the kingdom of God with humility. Other explanations claim there is a translation error. In this short Bible study, we will show what Jesus meant by examining who he was talking to and use historical and cultural evidence to understand the conversation happening in this passage.
