Matthew Poole and continuators on 1 John 2:16

16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh , and the lust of the eyes , and the pride of life , is not of the father, but is of the world .

Here he explains his meaning, what under the Name of this World, and the things of it, we are not to love, or under what Notion we ought not to love it, viz. the World as it contains the Objects and Nutriment of these mentioned Lusts, either more grossly sensual, called the Lust of the Flesh, viz. of Gluttony, Drunkenness, Whoredom, &c. Rom. 13.13, 14.

Or that which is excited more immediately by the Fancy, unto which the Eye especially ministreth, the excessive Appetite of much Wealth, and great Possessions. Which the Eye is therefore said to desire, and not to be satisfied with, Eccles. 2.8, 9, 10. and 4.8. called therefore the Lust of the Eye.

And again, the ambitious Affectation of the Pomp and Glory of the World, vain Applause, the unmerited and overvalued Praise and Observance of other Men, with Power over them, affected for undue ends; or only with a self-exalting Design, meant by the Pride of Life, forbidden by our Saviour to his Disciples, Matth. 20.25, 26. This triple Distribution, some observe to have been before used by some of the ancient learned Iews, and imitated by certain of the more refin'd Heathens; whence, as being formerly known, and understood, the Apostle might be induced to make use of it.

And these Lusts are therefore argued to be inconsistent with the Love of the Father, as not being of him, but if the World; not from the Divine Spirit, but the Spirit of the World.
