'''Matadormus''' was the [[wealthy]] [[young man]] and member of the [[Sanhedrin]] who was so impressed with [[Jesus]]' teaching that he sought to be an [[apostle]] notwithstanding the aversion of his [[colleagues]], the Jewish [[leaders]] in [[Jerusalem]] to such teachings. Though "greatly loved" by [[the Master]], Jesus, seeing his attachment to wealth, directed him to sell all his [[possessions]] and give the proceeds to the [[poor]] or his brethren and then follow him. It was this request that occasioned Matadormus' [[disappointment]] and the amazement of [[the apostles]] for whom [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] spoke saying "" Who then, Lord, can be saved? Shall all who have riches be kept out of the kingdom? "[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_163_-_Ordination_of_the_Seventy_at_Magadan#163:3._THE_DISCUSSION_ABOUT_WEALTH]. Notwithstanding this initial decline of [[the Master]]'s [[invitation]] to "follow me" whatever the cost, Matadormus did several years later on do just this, but by then it was too late to have gained the [[unique]] benefit of being a member of the [[apostolic party]] who [[shared]] all things in common with each other as they walked together as [[intimate]] [[associates]] of [[Jesus]] of [[Nazareth]].
