And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
All Commentaries on Luke 18:18 Go To Luke 18

It may seem that the account given in Matthew is different, where it is said, “Why ask you me of good?” which might apply better to the question which he asked, What good shall I do? In this place he both calls Him good, and asks the question about good. It will be best then to understand both to have been said, Why call you me good? and, Why ask you me of good? though the latter may rather be implied in the former.
