Envy always breaks the two Great Commands. I envy because I love something more than I love God. In envy I fail to love you as I should.
As a believer, envy is always vertical; you cannot be envious without questioning the goodness, wisdom and faithfulness of God.
Envy's the product of self-righteousness. You think you're better, so you can't deal with a person having what you deserve but don't enjoy.
