1. steal — To steal, take another's property unlawfully. Used throughout the NT in contexts ranging from the Decalogue prohibition 'you shall not steal' (Matt 19:18; Mark 10:19; Luke 18:20; Rom 2:21, 13:9), to literal theft (Matt 6:19-20 where thieves break in and steal; Matt 27:64, 28:13 stealing Jesus' body; John 10:10 the thief who comes to steal), to the moral exhortation that the former thief should steal no more (Eph 4:28). All multilingual glosses are uniformly 'steal/rob': Arabic yasriqu/saraqu, German stiehlt/stehlen, French voler, Hebrew ganav/gonen, Korean humchida/dodukjilhada, Spanish robar/hurtar. The various grammatical forms (present indicative, future indicative, aorist subjunctive, present imperative, aorist indicative, present participle, present infinitive) are all inflectional variants of this single lexicographic sense. 13×
