(20) Thou knowest the commandments.--St. Luke here agrees with St. Matthew in omitting the "defraud not," which we find in St. Mark.

Verse 20. - Thou knowest the commandments. The report in St. Matthew is somewhat fuller. There the ruler, when directed to the commandments, replies by asking "which?" expecting most likely to be referred to some of the elaborate traditional laws of the rabbinic schools, which were difficult to keep even by men in the position of a wealthy Pharisee; but to his surprise Jesus mentions the most general and best-known of the ancient ten.
