  1. I think the analogy was quite clear. Someone with wealth, as we saw with the wealthy young man that chose not to follow Jesus, have the burden of luxury and comfort that they feel no need for God. Plus, hubris, pride that go along with it. It would be easier for the impossibility of the camel than for a rich man to give up what he has to follow Christ. A number of Christians scholars have examined the parable for the very fact it makes such a stark contrast, and from Geneva, Wycliffe to Greek, you get the same meaning aside from basic issues of translation. On the basis of the Bible being true, it should be said that trying to use our own rationale thinking does not reveal what the Holy Spirit imparts with wisdom in understanding teachings, particularly the ones found difficult to understand from apostles to Pharisee, using their understanding. Human wisdom is foolishness to God and God's foolishness is wisdom compared to ours, to paraphrase.
