Temptation is a desire to engage in short-term urges for enjoyment, that threatens long-term goals. In the context of some religions, temptation is the inclination to sin.

What does James 1:2 mean by âdiverse temptationsâ or âtrials of many kindsâ? Posted on December 15, 2010 by Lance Ponder The Greek words poikilois peirasmos translate literally to âdiverse temptation.â Poikilois includes the meaning âof many kindsâ and is rendered equally well in KJV, NIV, and ESV. Peirasmos also has possible connotations of âtrialâ or âdifficulty,â although it is used more often as what we traditionally think of as temptationâas from the devil.
