“Do not seek revenge or bear grudge against one of your
people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD”
…Leviticus 19:18
Borrowing from (first use of word borrow,
Exodus 3:22
Every woman is to ask her neighbor and any woman living in
her house for articles of silver and gold and for clothing, which you will put
on your sons and daughters. And so you will plunder the Egyptians.”
Share worship with
Exodus 12:4
If any household is too small for a whole lamb, they must share
one with their nearest neighbor, having taken into account the number of people
there are. You are to determine the amount of lamb needed in accordance with
what each person will eat.
Do not bear false witness against
Exodus 20:16
“You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
Do not come presumptuously upon
Exodus 21:14
But if a man schemes and kills another man deliberately, take
him away from my altar and put him to death.
Property in trust
Exodus 22:7-14
7 “If a man gives his neighbor silver or goods for
safekeeping and they are stolen from the neighbor's house, the thief, if he is
caught, must pay back double.
8 But if the thief is not found, the owner of the house must
appear before the judges to determine whether he has laid his hands on the
other man's property.
9 In all cases of illegal possession of an ox, a donkey, a
sheep, a garment, or any other lost property about which somebody says, ‘This
is mine,’ both parties are to bring their cases before the judges. The one whom
the judges declare guilty must pay back double to his neighbor.
10 “If a man gives a donkey, an ox, a sheep or any other
animal to his neighbor for safekeeping and it dies or is injured or is taken
away while no one is looking,
11 the issue between them will be settled by the taking of an
oath before the LORD that the neighbor did not lay hands on the other person's
property. The owner is to accept this, and no restitution is required.
12 But if the animal was stolen from the neighbor, he must
make restitution to the owner.
13 If it was torn to pieces by a wild animal, he shall bring
in the remains as evidence and he will not be required to pay for the torn
animal.
14 “If a man borrows an animal from his neighbor and it is
injured or dies while the owner is not present, he must make restitution.
