They shall be taken care of in this world, and have earthly peace and joy, such as no sinner can have, and above all, "eternal life".

Matthew 19:29

Every one. Not only apostles, but every one who leaves all for Christ shall receive a hundred fold.

An hundredfold. Mark says, "Now in this time" (Mr 10:30). They shall be taken care of in this world, and have earthly peace and joy, such as no sinner can have, and above all, "eternal life".

Matthew 25:41

Depart from me. Those that have sought the Lord on earth shall be with him forever (1Th 4:17). Those who have turned away from him shall be turned away from him forever. The punishment is everlasting banishment from his presence (2Th 1:9).

Ye cursed. Under the Jewish law, anything irretrievably condemned and devoted to death was called "accursed" (De 13:17). The same term applied to the wicked is a sentence of eternal death.

Into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels. Fire is probably used, as in many other places in the Scripture, as symbol of the bitter punishment of the wicked. Note, (1) it is everlasting; (2) prepared, not for man, but for the devil and his angels. Those who choose his service will have his portion.
