Now followeth the tenth and last 1commandment, which word for word is expressed thus: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbours house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbours wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbours. Which words the Lord in the fifth of Deut▪ doth lay down in this manner and order. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbours wife, thou shalt not covet thy neighbours house, nor his field, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbours. Neither is there any difference or contrariety in the thing it self, although in Exod. Thy neighbours house, and in Deuteronomy Thy neighbours wife, be set first in order. Now this maketh somewhat against them that divide this last precept into two commandments, which is in deed but one, as it may be partly gathered by this order thus inverted in the setting of it down in two sundry places.
Now followeth the tenth and last 1commaundement, which word for word is expressed thus: Thou shalt not couet thy neighbours house, thou shalt not couet thy neighbours wife, nor his manseruaunt, nor his maydseruaunt, nor his oxe, nor his asse, nor any thing that is thy neighbours. Which words the Lord in the fifte of Deut▪ doth lay downe in this maner and order. Thou shalt not couet thy neighbours wife, thou shalt not couet thy neighbours house, nor his field, nor his manseruaunt, nor his maydseruaunt, nor his oxe, nor his asse, nor any thing that is thy neighbours. Neither is there any difference or contrarietie in the thing it selfe, although in Exod. Thy neighbours house, and in Deuteronomie Thy neighbours wife, be set first in order. Now this maketh somewhat against them that diuide this laste precept into two commaundements, which is in deede but one, as it may be partly gathered by this order thus inuerted in the setting of it downe in two sundrie places.
