Detailed explanation-1: -We’ve learned that Circles Two through Five of hell are for people guilty of sins of incontinence. These sinners exhibit either excess or negligence when it comes to sex, food, money, or anger. These sins are officially known in the Inferno as lust, gluttony, avarice, and wrathfulness or sullenness.
Detailed explanation-2: -Most of the seven deadly sins are defined by Dante Alighieri (c. 1264–1321) as perverse or corrupt versions of love; lust, gluttony, and greed are all excessive or disordered love of good things; and wrath, envy, and pride are perverted love directed toward others’ harm.
Detailed explanation-3: -In Latin and English, the Seven Deadly Sins are: superbia (pride), avaritia (greed), luxuria (extravagance, later lust), invidia (envy), gula (gluttony), ira (wrath), and acedia (sloth).
Detailed explanation-4: -Gluttony is described as excessive eating, drinking and indulgence, and covers also greed. It is listed in Christian teachings among the “seven deadly sins.” Some faith traditions clearly label it as a sin, while some others just discourage or prohibit gluttony.
Detailed explanation-5: -Originating in Christian theology, the seven deadly sins are pride, envy, gluttony, greed, lust, sloth, and wrath. Pride is sometimes referred to as vanity or vainglory, greed as avarice or covetousness, and wrath as anger.
