- Genesis 4:5
but He had no regard for Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his countenance fell.
Commentary on Genesis 4:52 voices
Every kind of honour and happiness was bestowed upon you, and then was fulfilled that which is written, "My beloved ate and drank, and was enlarged and became fat, and kicked." [Deuteronomy 32:15] Hence flowed emulation and envy, strife and sedition, persecution and disorder, war and captivity. So the worthless rose up against the honoured, those of no reputation against such as were renowned, the foolish against the wise, the young against those advanced in years.
Clement of Rome· Clement's First Letter to the Corinthians, Chapters 3-4, 99Patristic

Clement of Rome· Clement's First Letter to the Corinthians, Chapters 3-4, 99Patristic
(Verse 6.) And the Lord said to Cain: Why is your face downcast? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it. We are compelled to linger longer on each individual. For even now the meaning is very different in the Hebrew than in the translators of the Septuagint. For the Lord said to Cain: Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast?
Jerome· Hebrew Questions on Genesis, 420Patristic
- Genesis 4:8
Then Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let us go out to the field.” And while they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel and killed him.

- Genesis 37:4–11
When Joseph’s brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of them, they hated him and could not speak a kind word to him.
Commentary on Genesis 37:4–111 voice
And Joseph was loved by his father a great deal. And he gave him a multicolored garment as an excellent gift and a proof of the love with which he accompanied him. And this was an incentive to envy for his brothers and a cause of hatred, as the following events will demonstrate. In fact, the Pharisees were inflamed with anger against the beloved, that is, Christ, because he had been clothed by God the Father with a multiform glory.

Commentary on Exodus 20:52 voices

And they worship none other than the supreme God who made heaven and everything else.
