The Bible contrasts the "evil eye" with a "good eye," which represents a spirit of generosity. Is there such a thing as the evil eye? | GotQuestions.org
Proverbs explicitly links the "evil eye" to those who are miserly. Proverbs 28:22 warns that "a man with an evil eye hastens after wealth" but fails to see the poverty coming his way.
Jesus taught that the "eye is the lamp of the body" (Matthew 6:22–23). If your eye is "bad" (literally ponēros , or "evil"), your whole body is filled with darkness, representing a distorted moral focus rooted in material greed. Key Biblical References
