I mean, in the context of the passage it's pretty fucking clear that it isn't an easy thing to do. It doesn't matter if the saying was slightly off, the message is "give away all your possessions in order to follow Christ".

Yes, I'm not being combative. A rope doesn't fit through a needle either.

No, it's right there in the text. "Sell", not "give". You can be rich, you just can't have stuff.
