TOE TRIBUNAL AID.
WEI^ffiSDAY, APRIL 16. 1975
Another in a series on the Ten Commandments.
EXODUS 20:15: “THOU SHALT NOT STEAL.”
■What is it to steal?
(1) To steal is to take by stealth or force that which
rightly belongs to another. This is true whether the
values stolen are tangible or intangible, whether they
are values that we see, or values that we do not see.
Stealing is thus an aggressive something. It requires
activity on the part of the thief. Often this activity is
dangerous, putting in peril the freedom, and even the
life, of the thief. But whether the stealing is dangerous
or safe, if we wrench values either from the hand or the
heart of a brother, we are guilty of the violation of this
rule.
(2) Tasteal is to withhold from our fellows that which
they have a right to expect at our hands. Our lives
interlock one with the other. Seriously, to ask the
question, “Am I my brother’s keeper?” is to show
disregard for the rights of others. No man but a
potential thief would ask such a question. Every man
owes a debt to his fellows. To refuse to pay that debt is
to violate this law. A thief, therefore, may be very
active and aggressive.
Therefore, whether the,stealing is active or passive,
whether we take that which is another’s or withhold
that which we ought to give to another, we are guilty of
the violation of this rule.
What are some of the common kinds of stealing that
are prevalent today?
Take it on its positive side. Of course, there are those
who steal material values. But we can pass over these
lightly. 1 am not in the least uneasy that any reading
this column will be pickpockets, embezzlers, or
gangsters. The type of stealing that brings one into
conflict with the law is not likely to appeal to many of
us. But this, perhaps, is not so true of stealing within
the law.
For instance, 1 have known more than one churchman
to take advantage of another’s hard luck to put him to
the wall. This type of stealing is more contemptible
than that of the highwayman. The knight of the road
does possess a certain kind of daring. But not even this
can be claimed for those who steal within the law. He
exposes himself to no danger at all.
One of the most despicable characters in the Old
Testament, when he first comes upon the scene, is
Jacob. He prides himself on the fact that he can live by
his wits. One day his big, hungry brother comes in from
the chase. Jacob is cooking dinner. The savory odor of
these steaming lentils comes to the nostrils of Esau
with a compelling appeal. “Feed me that red stuff,”
he begs.
“All right,” says the wily Jacob. “But first, sell me
your birthright.”
“Take it,” says Esau. "I am about to die.” He then
