For we brought nothing into the world This phrase emphasizes the transient nature of human existence and material possessions. The Greek word for "brought" (εἰσήνεγκεν) suggests the act of carrying or bringing something into a place. In the context of birth, it highlights the fact that humans enter life without any material possessions. This echoes the wisdom literature of the Old Testament, such as Job 1:21, where Job acknowledges, "Naked I came from my mother’s womb." The historical context of this passage reminds us of the ancient understanding of life as a journey, where material wealth is temporary and ultimately left behind. This perspective encourages believers to focus on spiritual wealth and eternal values rather than earthly possessions. and neither can we carry anything out Parallel Commentaries ...
