‏ Luke 18:22

 One thing thou lackest yet ( ετ εν σο λειπε ). Literally, one thing still fails thee or is wanting to thee. An old verb with the dative of personal interest. Mr 10:21 has here  υστερε σε, which see. It was an amazing compliment for one who was aiming at perfection (Mt 19:21). The youth evidently had great charm and was sincere in his claims.

 Distribute ( διαδος ). Second aorist active imperative of  διαδιδωμ (give to various ones,  δια- ). Here Mark and Matthew simply have  δος (give). The rest the same in all three Gospels.
