2. I am jealous for you, just as God is; you are like a pure virgin whom I have promised in marriage to one man only, Christ himself.
3. I am afraid that your minds will be corrupted and that you will abandon your full and pure devotion to Christ — in the same way that Eve was deceived by the snake's clever lies.
