Luke 18:30

30 who will not get back very much more in this age, and in the age to come eternal life."

Luke 18:30 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 18:30

Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time,
&c.] Not more houses, parents, brethren but that which is abundantly preferable to them; such comfort, peace, satisfaction, and pleasure, as are not to be found in such enjoyments:

and in the world to come life everlasting;
which was what the young man was desirous of inheriting, ( Luke 18:18 ) (See Gill on Matthew 19:29).

Luke 18:30 In-Context

28 Then Peter said, "Look, we have left our homes and followed you."

29 And he said to them, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,

30 who will not get back very much more in this age, and in the age to come eternal life."

31 Then he took the twelve aside and said to them, "See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written about the Son of Man by the prophets will be accomplished.

32 For he will be handed over to the Gentiles; and he will be mocked and insulted and spat upon.
