Context of Mark 10:29
27Looking at them, Jesus said, “With man it is impossible, but not with God, because all things are possible with God.” 28Peter began to tell him, “Look, we have left everything and followed you.” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus said, “there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for my sake and for the sake of the gospel, 30who will not receive a hundred times more, now at this time — houses, brothers and sisters, mothers and children, and fields, with persecutions — and eternal life in the age to come. 31But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”
