This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
If thou wouldest be perfect (ei theleis teleios einai). Condition of the first class, determined as fulfilled. Jesus assumes that the young man really desires to be perfect (a big adjective that, perfect as God is the goal, Mat 5:48).
That thou hast (sou ta huparchonta). “Thy belongings.” The Greek neuter plural participle used like our English word “belongings.” It was a huge demand, for he was rich.
