The Gospel and the Ouroboros

What this episode covers

(Proper 21 - The Rev. Richard E. Helmer) Envy appears in a number of vice lists in the earliest Christian writings. And it is a mainstay in the old classical list of the seven deadly sins. It was obviously a problem for our spiritual ancestors as much as it can be for us. So Jesus follows Moses in making it clear to his followers then and now that there's little time and even less room for it in God's promised reign.
