Why did Jesus tell the rich man to sell all his possessions before coming to follow Him?

Because Jesus said Most certainly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle`s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God. His possessions must not be an obstacle between him and God. That is why, Jesus tells the rich man to sell all his possessions before coming to follow Him.

Why did Jesus? penalty for sin need to include physical and emotional pain - why not just spiritual separation from God?

God wanted us to understand that penalty for every sin is painful..The pain that Jesus gone through included both spiritual and emotional..A human being can follow this well and will realise the gravity of his mistakes.A spiritual seperation may not be felt with the same intensity..we are sinners and we had to be taught in the hardest way.hence this kind of pain for Jesus during his last hours on earth.

Was Jesus trying to incite his death (eg. temple cleansing, accusation of leaders?)

Never..he didn`t have to do anything to incite his death, , Jesus died on the cross cause it was written.Infact he lived his life as God wanted..He had to, for he knew that mHe only can save us the sinners.Ultimately he proved that he is the son of god who came to this earth to accomplish what is prophesised.
