Context — Property Laws
5If a man grazes his livestock in a field or vineyard and allows them to stray so that they graze in someone else’s field, he must make restitution from the best of his own field or vineyard.
6If a fire breaks out and spreads to thornbushes so that it consumes stacked or standing grain, or the whole field, the one who started the fire must make full restitution.
7If a man gives his neighbor money or goods for safekeeping and they are stolen from the neighbor’s house, the thief, if caught, must pay back double.
8If the thief is not found, the owner of the house must appear before the judges to determine whether he has taken his neighbor’s property. 9In all cases of illegal possession of an ox, a donkey, a sheep, a garment, or any lost item that someone claims, ‘This is mine,’ both parties shall bring their cases before the judges. The one whom the judges find guilty must pay back double to his neighbor.Cross References

Exodus 22:7 Summary
Exodus 22:7 is talking about a situation where someone has been given money or goods to take care of, but they get stolen. If the thief is caught, they have to pay back double to the owner, which shows how important it is to be trustworthy and responsible with the things that have been given to us (as seen in Matthew 25:21 and Luke 19:17). This principle can be applied to our everyday lives, where we are called to be good stewards of the resources and property that have been entrusted to us. By being faithful and responsible, we can demonstrate our love and obedience to God, as taught in 1 Corinthians 4:2 and Colossians 3:23-24.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if the thief is caught in Exodus 22:7?
According to Exodus 22:7, if the thief is caught, he must pay back double to the owner, which is a principle also seen in Exodus 22:9 and 2 Samuel 12:6.
Is this verse talking about a specific kind of theft?
Yes, Exodus 22:7 specifically addresses a situation where someone has been entrusted with money or goods for safekeeping and they are stolen from the neighbor's house, similar to the concept of stewardship in Luke 12:42-48.
How does this verse relate to trust and responsibility?
This verse highlights the importance of being a trustworthy and responsible steward of the resources and property that have been entrusted to us, as seen in Matthew 25:14-30 and 1 Corinthians 4:2.
What if the thief is not found, what happens then?
If the thief is not found, the owner of the house must appear before the judges to determine whether he has taken his neighbor's property, as stated in Exodus 22:8, which emphasizes the importance of accountability and justice.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I can apply the principle of being a trustworthy steward in my own life, especially when it comes to the resources and property that have been entrusted to me?
- How can I balance the need to protect my own property with the need to be generous and trusting of others, as seen in Acts 2:44-45 and Acts 4:32-37?
- What are some potential consequences of not being a responsible steward, and how can I avoid them, as warned in Luke 16:1-13 and 1 Timothy 6:10?
- In what ways can I demonstrate my commitment to being a trustworthy and responsible member of my community, as encouraged in Romans 12:17 and Hebrews 13:16?
Gill's Exposition on Exodus 22:7
If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stock to keep,.... Without any reward for keeping it, as the Targum of Jonathan; and so other Jewish writers (p) understand this passage of such as
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Exodus 22:7
If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief be found, let him pay double.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Exodus 22:7
Stuff, Heb. vessels, garments, utensils, or any kind of household stuff.
Trapp's Commentary on Exodus 22:7
Exodus 22:7 If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man’ s house; if the thief be found, let him pay double.Ver. 7. Or stuff.] Heb., Vessels, instruments, ornaments, apparel, furniture, weapons, &c.
Ellicott's Commentary on Exodus 22:7
(7-13) Property deposited in the hands of another for safe keeping might be so easily embezzled by the trustee, or lost through his negligence, that some special laws were needed for its protection. Conversely the trustee required to be safe-guarded against incurring loss if the property intrusted to his care suffered damage or disappeared without fault of his. The Mosaic legislation provided for both cases. On the one hand, it required the trustee to exercise proper care, and made him answerable for the loss if a thing intrusted to him was stolen and the thief not found. Embezzlement it punished by requiring the trustee guilty of it to “pay double.” On the other hand, in doubtful cases it allowed the trustee to clear himself by an oath (Exodus 22:10), and in clear cases to give proof that the loss had happened through unavoidable accident (Exodus 22:12).
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Exodus 22:7
Verse 7. Deliver unto his neighbour] This is called pledging in the law of bailments; it is a deposit of goods by a debtor to his creditor, to be kept till the debt be discharged. Whatever goods were thus left in the hands of another person, that person, according to the Mosaic law, became responsible for them; if they were stolen, and the thief was found, he was to pay double; if he could not be found, the oath of the person who had them in keeping, made before the magistrates, that he knew nothing of them, was considered a full acquittance. Among the Romans, if goods were lost which a man had intrusted to his neighbour, the depositary was obliged to pay their full value. But if a man had been driven by necessity, as in case of fire, to lodge his goods with one of his neighbours, and the goods were lost, the depositary was obliged to pay double their value, because of his unfaithfulness in a case of such distress, where his dishonesty, connected with the destruction by the fire, had completed the ruin of the sufferer. To this case the following law is applicable: Cum quis fidem elegit, nec depositum redditur, contentus esse debet simplo: cum vero extante necessitate deponat, crescit perfidia crimen, &c. - Digest., lib. xvi., tit. 3, 1. 1.
Cambridge Bible on Exodus 22:7
7–13. Compensation for loss or damage in various cases of deposit. At the present day, among the Bedawin, a man going on a journey for instance will deposit money or goods with another for safety during his absence. Such a deposit is regarded by the Arabs as a sacred trust (Cook, p. 227; Doughty, i. 176, 267, 280, ii. 301).
