Romans 2:21

2:21 therefore you who teach someone else, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal?

Romans 13:9

13:9 For the commandments,Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not covet, (and if there is any other commandment) are summed up in this, “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

tn The structure of vv. 21-24 is difficult. Some take these verses as the apodosis of the conditional clauses (protases) in vv. 17-20; others see vv. 17-20 as an instance of anacoluthon (a broken off or incomplete construction).

tn Grk “For the…” (with the word “commandments” supplied for clarity). The Greek article (“the”) is used here as a substantiver to introduce the commands that are quoted from the second half of the Decalogue (ExSyn 238).
