There is a marked difference
between envy and jealousy. Jealousy is
when you don’t want people to have what you have. For example, King Saul was jealous of David. He didn’t want him to have his kingdom. Envy, on the other hand, is when you want
what others have. We read in Genesis
26:14 that the Philistines envied Isaac because of all he had.
Envy is a great destroyer. When you find envious people, you’ll find a
life of turmoil and bitterness. Envy
will destroy you.
