Context of Mark 10:28

26Then Jesus' disciples were even more surprised. They said to each other, ‘So perhaps God will not save anyone!’ 27Jesus looked at them and he replied, ‘For people, it really is impossible. But God can do it. God can do everything.’ Peter said to Jesus, ‘Look! We have left everything that we had. Now we are your disciples.’ 29Jesus said, ‘I tell you this: Some people have left their homes. Or they may have left their brothers or sisters. Or they may have left their mother or their father. Or they may have left their children or their fields. They have done that because of me. And they have done it because of God's good news. 30Now, in this world, God will give those people many more things than they have left behind, even 100 times more! Yes, they will receive houses and brothers and sisters. They will receive mothers and children and fields. As well as all this, people will be against them. But in the future world, they will live for ever with God.

Into the way - Into the road or path on his journey. Running - Thus showing the intensity with which he desired to know the way of life. Zeal to know the way to be saved is proper, nor is it possible that it should be too intense if well directed. Nothing else is so important, and nothing demands, therefore, so…Read the comment
