The seven deadly sins were first enumerated by Pope Gregory I (the Great) in the 6th century and later elaborated by St. Thomas Aquinas in the 13th century. Along with pride, they include wrath, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, and sloth. Although the concept of the seven deadly sins is not found in scripture, the sin of pride is frequently warned against in the Bible. In the Book of Genesis, the serpent tempts Eve in the Garden of Eden by appealing to pride and envy, with the promise that she “will be like God, knowing good and evil” after eating the forbidden fruit. A famous proverb in the Old Testament cautions, “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall” (Proverbs 16:18). Conversely, multiple references in the New Testament quote Jesus’s advice on the virtue of humility, “All who exalt themselves will be humbled, and all who humble themselves will be exalted” (Gospel According to Matthew 23:12).
