One Eye
Imagine a group of doctors, who are looking for donors for eye transplant operations. They are willing to pay one million dollars for one eye. What's more, they will pay twenty million dollars for a matching pair. Think about it. Would you sell both of your eyes for $20,000,000?
I'm sure no one in his or her right mind would give up their eyes for one hundred million dollars.
Your eyes are priceless, yet they are merely the windows of your soul. Your soul (your life) looks out of the windows. Shut the shutters of your eyelids, and you can't see out.
Jesus said that you should despise the value of that precious eye compared to the value of your life. He said that if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you, for it is better to enter Heaven without an eye than to go to Hell with both eyes. In other words, of all the things in life that you should prioritize, of all the things that should be important to you, it's not your eyes, it's the eternal salvation of your soul.
