Rottenness in the Bones

Today’s culture often glorifies envy—encouraging resentment of others’ success in politics, work, and society. But Scripture calls envy “the rottenness of the bones,” a force that weakens both individuals and nations. This episode contrasts the biblical warning against covetousness with the modern push to embrace it, showing how envy leads not to justice or prosperity, but to collapse. True strength comes from a sound, regenerated heart—not from bitterness or blame.
