Exodus 22:1

If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
All Commentaries on Exodus 22:1 Go To Exodus 22

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Five oxen; because they are of greater value than sheep. (Theodoret) As these things may easily be stolen, a heavier fine is imposed than on those who steal money. The Scythians punish theft with the utmost severity. (Grotius) All these punishments, till the 25th chapter, were inflicted by the judge. (Tirinus)
