The rich man sorrowfully turning away from Jesus after he tells him that to be perfect, he should give up all his wealth, and then the story of the camel through the eye of the needle immediately following it as a reflection on the man's actions, is repeated almost word-for-word in Luke 18.
Luke and Acts internally claim to be written by the same author, and modern scholarship agrees they were written by the same author.

> The view that they were written by the same person is virtually unanimous among scholars.
