Why do you call me good? Jesus answered. No one is good — except God alone — why do you call me good: the counter-question that challenges the casual use of the good title. No one is good except God alone: the theological claim that sets the standard for goodness. The question is not a denial of Jesus' goodness but an invitation to clarify what the ruler means by addressing Jesus as good.
