Covetousness is an inordinate desire for things we do not have, and delight in these desires.

related to concupiscence but involves sin since it means some embracing of the forbidden desire and can include taking some action on these desires.

Covetousness is a choice while concupiscence is not.

Gal 5: 17 Flesh and spirit are at war with each other https://bible.usccb.org/bible/galatia...

1 John 2: 16 Covetous of the eyes flesh, eyes, pride of life Do not love the world https://bible.usccb.org/bible/1john/2...

Need to close the door on impure thoughts to avoid mortal sin, but also must avoid scrupulosity.

4 Maccabees not canonical chapt 2 Joseph did not covet, used reason to control urges regarding Potiphar's wife

3 things are needed against covetousness: Grace, reason, temperance

Joseph did not cave into temptation, thus imprisoned, but was rewarded in the end

Devil is involved, the fall, sometimes not, but always resist

CCC 2518 - purify the heart, 6th beatitude - http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/p3s2c2a...

6th beatitude - Matthew 5:8, which says, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.” https://bible.usccb.org/bible/matthew...

charity, chastity, love of truth (orthodoxy) - we are not pure of heart if we do not embrace all the doctrines of the faith.

Ave Maria!
