[5:21] 1 tn The Hebrew verb used here (חָמַד, khamad) is different from the one translated “crave” (אָוַה, ’avah) in the next line. The former has sexual overtones (“lust” or the like; cf. Song of Sol 2:3) whereas the latter has more the idea of a desire or craving for material things.
[5:21] 2 tn Heb “your neighbor’s.” See note on the term “fellow man” in v. 19.
[5:21] 3 tn Heb “your neighbor’s.” The pronoun is used in the translation for stylistic reasons.
