It frequently refers to sinful desires or lusts that are contrary to God's will. However, it can also denote a strong, earnest desire for something good, such as the longing to see Christ or to be with fellow believers.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, desires were often seen as powerful forces that could lead individuals astray if not properly controlled. The New Testament writers, influenced by Jewish teachings, emphasized the importance of aligning one's desires with God's will. The concept of "epithumia" was particularly relevant in addressing the moral and ethical challenges faced by early Christians living in a pagan society.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 1939</b> <i>epithymía</i> (from <a href="/greek/1909.htm">1909</a> <i>/epí</i>, &quot;focused <i>on</i>&quot; and <a href="/greek/2372.htm">2372</a> <i>/thymós</i>, &quot;passionate desire&quot;) – properly, <i>passion</i> built <i>on</i> strong feelings (urges).
