German term or phrase: er beinhaltete Ausgrenzung
"Er füllte sich mit Neid, er beinhaltete Ausgrenzung."

This appears in a passage in an autobiography in which the author is describing the negative traits of one of his neighbours.

I'm tempted to think it means something like "he started ostracising/excluding others", or even "he cut himself off (from others)". Comments and suggestions appreciated - many thanks in advance.
