Exegesis
A series of negative future indicative verbs—moicheuseis {μοιχεύσεις | moi-kheú-seis} “you shall commit adultery,” phoneuseis {φονεύσεις | pho-neú-seis} “you shall murder,” klepseis {κλέψεις | klép-seis} “you shall steal,” and epithymeseis {ἐπιθυμήσεις | e-pi-thu-mḗ-seis} “you shall covet”—are each negated by ou / ouk {οὐ / οὐκ | ou / ouk}, forming a parallel list reminiscent of the Decalogue.
In context — Romans 13:9
All these commands—“You shall not commit adultery; you shall not murder; you shall not steal; you shall not covet ”—and every other commandment are summed up in one statement: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
