“All love that depends on some material cause, with the passing away of that that cause, the love also passes away; but if it not be dependent upon such a cause, it will last forever.
Which love was the love that depended on a material cause? Such was the love between Amnon and Tamar. Which love was the love that depended on no such cause? Such was the love between David and Jonathan.’ –Avot 5:19
Lust what is the cause that pushed Amnon toward Tamar. The brotherly love between David and Jonathan was ironclad.
