Envy And The Gospel Of Resentment

Cain resented Able's favour from God.  So, it's not new.  Able had more.

I was thinking of the parable from the Gospel according to St. Matthew where the workers in the field are angry that the parttimers got a full day's wages.  They, in effect, received twice as much pay.  And, I got thinking:  If I make my full wage, why should I hate Bill Gates?  

I assume it was wrong for the field workers to be angry.
