In the Jewish tradition, "amen" is a strong affirmation, meaning "so be it" or "it is true." Jesus uses this phrase to underscore the certainty and authority of His statement, inviting His listeners to pay close attention to the profound truth He is about to reveal.Jesus replied This phrase indicates that Jesus is responding to a question or situation. In the context of <a href="/mark/10.htm">Mark 10</a>, Jesus is addressing His disciples after a rich young man has walked away saddened by the call to sell all he has and follow Jesus. The disciples are perplexed about who can be saved, and Jesus is providing assurance and clarity. The use of "replied" suggests a direct and personal engagement with His followers, emphasizing His role as a teacher and guide.no one who has left The phrase "no one who has left" speaks to the radical call of discipleship. The Greek word for "left" is "ἀφῆκεν" (aphēken), which means to leave behind or abandon. This implies a deliberate and conscious decision to forsake something valuable for the sake of a greater purpose. In the historical context, following Jesus often required leaving behind one's family, possessions, and social status, highlighting the cost of true discipleship.home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields This list of relationships and possessions represents the core of one's identity and security in the ancient world. "Home" signifies one's place of belonging and comfort. "Brothers, sisters, mother, father, children" denote familial bonds, which were central to Jewish life and culture. "Fields" symbolize economic stability and livelihood. Jesus acknowledges the significant sacrifices His followers may have to make, emphasizing that the call to follow Him transcends even the most fundamental human attachments.for My sake and for the gospel The phrase "for My sake and for the gospel" provides the motivation and purpose behind the sacrifices mentioned. "For My sake" indicates a personal devotion to Jesus Himself, recognizing Him as Lord and worthy of ultimate allegiance. "For the gospel" refers to the good news of the Kingdom of God, which Jesus came to proclaim. The Greek word for "gospel" is "εὐαγγέλιον" (euangelion), meaning "good news." This highlights the transformative message of salvation and hope that Jesus brings. The dual focus on Jesus and the gospel underscores the inseparable link between the person of Christ and His redemptive mission.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/mark/10.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(29) Verily I say unto you.--St. Mark, possibly as writing for Gentile converts, omits the special promise to the Twelve, that they should "sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel" (<a href="/matthew/19-28.htm" title="And Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, That you which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, you also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.">Matthew 19:28</a>).<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/mark/10.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 29. - St. Matthew (<a href="/matthew/19-28.htm">Matthew 19:28</a>) here introduces the great promise, to be fulfilled in the regeneration, that is, at the second coming of Christ - at the second birth of the world to a new and glorious state. It may be that St. Matthew was guided to record it, inasmuch as his Gospel was written for Jews. Its omission by St. Mark and St. Luke may be explained by the fact that they were writing, the one to Romans, and the other to Gentiles generally. Omitting further notice here of this great promise recorded only by St. Matthew, St. Mark's words seem general, common to all faithful Christians. This leaving, of house, or brethren, or sisters, etc., might be rendered necessary from various causes. But they are all covered by that one expression, for my sake, and for the gospel's. <a href="/commentaries/mark/10-29.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div>“Truly Ἀμὴν (Amēn) Hebrew Word <a href="/greek/strongs_281.htm">Strong's 281: </a> Of Hebrew origin; properly, firm, i.e. trustworthy; adverbially, surely.
