Jewish law has one of the most comprehensive systems for protecting property rights. The Torah requires not only that stealing cease but that restitution be made — typically the stolen item plus an additional one-fifth of its value. The Talmud extends the concept of theft to include geneivat da'at (deception), withholding wages (oshek), and even subtle forms like staring at someone's merchandise when you have no intention to buy. Jewish law also distinguishes between a gazlan (an open robber) and a ganav (a stealthy thief) — interestingly, the Torah is harsher on the stealthy thief, who must pay double restitution, than the open robber who simply returns what was taken. The reasoning: the stealthy thief shows fear of humans but not fear of God.

Repentance: Teshuvah
