16.76

The explanation says: The "without error," "deliberate intention," and "notion" of the previous verse carry forward into this subsequent section and are not repeated. Stealing is complete with five conditions: 1. Having previously aroused the deliberate intention of desiring to steal, which carries forward from the preceding. 2. Directed toward another's property; stealing one's own property is not a course of action. 3. Giving rise to the notion of another's property; the notion of one's own property is not a course of action. The third condition of "notion" carries forward from the preceding. 4. Either by force or by stealth, making the preparatory effort of stealing. 5. Taking without error, causing it to belong to oneself; "belong to oneself" is present in the verse, while "without error" carries forward from the preceding. Only when these five conditions are met does it constitute a course of action.
