    книжн.
    стремление к удовольствиям, чувственные наслаждения, порочные наклонности [этим.The Book of Common Prayer]

    But when I was in the hospital the pastor of the Pentecostal Communion Faith used to come to see me, and he showed me, tight from the prophecies written in the Word of God, that the day of Judgment is coming and all the members of the older churches are going straight to eternal damnation, because they only do lip-service and swallow the word, the flesh and the devil - (S. Lewis, ‘Babbitt’, ch. XXVI) — Но когда я попала в больницу, меня приходил навещать проповедник общины Святой Троицы, и он мне доказал - это в Священном Писании сказано, - что близится день Страшного суда, и вся паства необновленных церквей пойдет прямо в ад: ведь они чтут Бога не сердцем, а языком и попустительствуют всему мирскому, плотскому, дьявольскому.
