In Jewish tradition, letter gimel [[ג]] means 'a rich man pursuing a poor man' <ref>The metaphor of the letter means 'to pursue'.</ref>. It is the same word as camel. Luke tells the account of when a rich man chased after the poor man, Jesus <ref>[[Lu 18:18ff]]</ref>. He called Jesus "Good Teacher" and ask what he must do to inherit eternal life. Jesus said that only God was good, but if he kept the commandments he would do well. Now the rich man (camel) made a mistaken judgement. He said that he had kept all the commandments. Though Jesus said only God was good, the man said he too was good. He made himself equal to God. Jesus told him that if he was equal to God, Jesus himself, he should do what God has done. He should give up all he has, since Jesus gave up his divinity and possession of the universe, to be the poor man standing before him.
If you have ever threaded a needle, you spit on the thread and make it stand out, and try to run it through the eye. It is difficult because as your hand with the thread shakes, the thread bends down. To do it more easily, you hold the thread hand against your cheek near your eye and bring the needle to it. This is what the rich man had done. He brought the law to him, interpreting the law in such a way that he did not see his own sin. It is easy easier for a real camel to go through the eye of a real needle than for the rich-man camel to justify himself by the law. He was a poor judge facing the true judge. <ref>[[Mt 19:16 ff]]</ref>
