Thematic Bible: Of others if lost or hurt through neglect, to be made good


Thematic Bible



"In every ownership dispute involving an ox, donkey, sheep, garment, or anything that is lost where a person says, "This is mine,' the case between the two of them is to come before the judges, and the one that the judges declare guilty is to repay double to his neighbor. "When a man gives a donkey, ox, sheep, or any animal to his neighbor for safe keeping, and it dies or is injured or is driven away when no one is looking, the two of them are to take an oath in the LORD's presence that the accused has not taken his neighbor's property. Its owner is to accept this, and the neighbor is not to make restitution. read more.
But if it was actually stolen from him, the neighbor is to make restitution to its owner. If it was torn to pieces, let the neighbor bring the remains as evidence, and he is not to make restitution for what was torn apart.
