   Enmity
      deep-rooted hatred. "I will put enmity between thee and the
      woman, between thy seed and her seed" (Gen. 3:15). The
      friendship of the world is "enmity with God" (James 4:4; 1 John
      2:15, 16). The "carnal mind" is "enmity against God" (Rom. 8:7).
      By the abrogation of the Mosaic institutes the "enmity" between
      Jew and Gentile is removed. They are reconciled, are "made one"
      (Eph. 2:15, 16).
