The tenth Commandment (Exodus 20:17: "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's."

According to the Book of Exodus, the Ten Commandments were given to Moses by God. However, this commandment is out of place for a wandering band and would remain anachronistic for centuries after the time attributed to Moses. It was clearly written later in the first millennium BCE. There are grounds for assigning this to the anonymous seventh-century-BCE source now known as the Deuteronomist.
