Study Note
The command to 'put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry' grounds radical mortification in the indicative of death and resurrection with Christ (3:1-4). The identification of covetousness (pleonexia) as idolatry draws on the prophetic tradition that equates the love of possessions with the worship of a false god (Ezekiel 14:3; Ephesians 5:5), and Jesus's teaching that one cannot serve God and money (Matthew 6:24). The verb 'put to death' (nekrōsate — an aorist imperative) suggests a decisive act, not a gradual process, consistent with the 'dying to sin' language of Romans 6. The verse establishes that union with the crucified Christ requires concrete mortification of specific vices, not merely a general orientation toward holiness.
