Envy is a deep-seated discontentment with what one has when compared to others. It is a sin that combines feelings of covetousness, jealousy, and selfishness. The envious man can never show genuine happiness for the success of others, because he is always left comparing it to himself and questioning its merit - always seeing it as a slight against himself. One of history’s most devastating examples of envy is perhaps America's greatest hero-turned-villain, Benedict Arnold. In this episode, we’ll delve into his life as an American patriot during the Revolutionary War, how he rose through the ranks to become one of George Washington’s most trusted generals, and how his envy led him to betray the country he had once fought so hard to defend.
