ATS Bible Dictionary

Theft

Exodus 20:15 Proverbs 22:22, under the Mosaic law, was punished by exacting a double or a quadruple restitution, which was secured if necessary by the sale of the goods or services of the thief to the requisite amount, Exodus 22:1-8,23 2 Samuel 12:6 Proverbs 6:30,31 Luke 19:8. A night-robber might lawfully be slain in the act; and a man-stealer was to be punished by death, Exodus 21:16 22:2.

Easton's Bible Dictionary

Punished by restitution, the proportions of which are noted in 2 Samuel 12:6. If the thief could not pay the fine, he was to be sold to a Hebrew master till he could pay (Exodus 22:1-4). A night-thief might be smitten till he died, and there would be no blood-guiltiness for him (22:2). A man-stealer was to be put to death (21:16). All theft is forbidden (Exodus 20:15; 21:16; Leviticus 19:11; Deuteronomy 5:19; 24:7; Psalm 50:18; Zechariah 5:3; Matthew 19:18; Romans 13:9; Ephesians 4:28; 1 Peter 4:15).

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary

1. (n.) The act of stealing; specifically, the felonious taking and removing of personal property, with an intent to deprive the rightful owner of the same; larceny.

2. (n.) The thing stolen.
