Now this he spake because of the stiffneckedness of Laman and Lemuel; for behold they did murmur in many things against their father, because he was a visionary man, and had led them out of the land of Jerusalem, to leave the land of their inheritance, and their gold, and their silver, and their precious things, to perish in the wilderness. And this they said he had done because of the foolish imaginations of his heart.
Those who focus on worldly wealth feel they will perish without the trappings of the world. They believe their life is in their things. Without their things they have no worth and no purpose. Satan tells us that we can buy anything in this world with money. God says we don't need money for the most important things in life.
