Mark 10:19

The Old Testament taught that if a person kept the Mosaic Law he would live (Deuteronomy 30:15-16). This was theoretically possible but practically impossible. Jesus reminded the man of what the law required by citing five commands in the second table of the Decalogue. The commands Jesus mentioned are easily verifiable in conduct. Mark alone recorded the prohibition against defrauding, which was evidently a particular expression of stealing appropriate to the wealthy. [Note: Plummer, p. 239.]
