 And so Jesus addresses him with a very preacherly term, again, man, but because he's about to remind him of his fleeting nature. That is why he does that. In fact, Jesus has been instructing on some very profound issues of spirituality, issues of eternity. He's been speaking on issues of judgment to come, but all that this man can think about is getting his share of some temporary inheritance. In other words, again, in the grand scheme of eternity, this is a very petty issue.
