OET-RV JAM 2:2

2 For example, if a man in nicely cut clothes and wearing an expensive gold ring came into to your meeting as well as a poor man in filthy clothes

Sense 2: morally impure, morally filthy, morally perverted

Semantic entry: 88.257

Semantic domains: Moral and Ethical Qualities and Related Behavior

Subdomains: Impurity

Definition: pertaining to being morally impure or filthy

Notes: It would be a mistake to assume that physical filth is necessarily related to moral impurity. Hence, one cannot simply take a word meaning ‘dirty’ and presume that it may carry the figurative significance of moral depravity or impurity. The equivalent in some languages is ‘moral degenerate,’ ‘stained with badness,’ ‘spotted with evil,’ or ‘has sin on him like leprous spots.’
