Luke 10:25

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

However, the Pharisees and the experts in religious law rejected God's purpose for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.)

One of the experts in religious law answered him, "Teacher, when you say these things you insult us too."

And one of them, an expert in religious law, asked him a question to test him:

Now a certain ruler asked him, "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?"

Now someone came up to him and said, "Teacher, what good thing must I do to gain eternal life?"

Then he brought them outside and asked, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?"

For if the inheritance is based on the law, it is no longer based on the promise, but God graciously gave it to Abraham through the promise.
