Mark 10:21 (AV)
Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him,
One thing thou lackest: go thy way,
sell whatsoever thou hast,
and give to the poor,
and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come,
take up the cross,
and follow me.

And Jesus [49] looked intently at him, and loved him, and said unto him, b.If thou wouldest be perfect, what thou lackest is one thing: From Mark. go away and sell everything that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and take thy [50] cross, and follow me. Matt. xix. 22a; Luke xviii. 23b.

Chrysostom Homily VII on Acts ii. 37.
And on this account Christ too did not allow the parting with riches alone to suffice, but what saith He? “Sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and come and follow Me.” (Mark x. 21.)

Jerome (omit)
Once upon a time a rich young man boasted that he had fulfilled all the requirements of the law, but the Lord said to him (as we read in the gospel): “One thing thou lackest: if thou wilt be perfect, go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor; and come and follow me.”308

Gregory Nazianzen (allusion)
Thou shalt not join house to house, nor field to field, oppressing the poor;46214621 Isa. v. 8. but you are to set aside willingly even your just possessions, and to be stripped for the poor, that without encumbrance you may take up the Cross46224622 Mark x. 21. and be enriched with the unseen riches.
