Te psychologiczne of envy is instructive: it narrows thee field of vision until thee envier sees only what is lacking. In a community bound the Ten Commandments, envy is a catalist for division. Cain 's jealousy over Abel' s acceptable officie preceded the first murder, showing how envy can escate rapidly.
