Zengin Genç Ruler

Jesus stands with His disciples as the rich young ruler turns away in troubled silence. The young man’s fine garments and bowed face emphasize the weight of Christ’s command: sell what you possess, give to the poor, and follow Him. The open space between the teacher and the ruler visually expresses the spiritual distance created by divided devotion. Drawn from the Gospel account, the scene portrays a man who desired eternal life yet could not release the security of wealth. It is a thoughtful image for teaching on discipleship, surrender, stewardship, and the cost of following Christ.
