LEV340 Rava said: Why does Scripture states: "Do not steal"? [Derived it (the prohibition against taking another's property) from the interdiction of usury and of cheating.] [We are being taught] "Do not steal" [even if only] to taunt [i.e., with the intention of returning the stolen object]; "Do not steal" [even if] to increase the liability of kefel [paying double in order to benefit the other!] (Bava Metzia 61b)
