The tenth commandment strikes at the very root of all sins, prohibiting the selfish desire, from which springs the sinful act. He who in obedience to God's law refrains from indulging even a sinful desire for that which belongs to another will not be guilty of an act of wrong toward his fellow creatures. - Patriarchs and Prophets, 309.5

The commandment, "You shall not covet," strikes at the heart of our inclination to desire what belongs to others. By obeying this command, we are encouraged to refrain from even harboring wrongful desires for what others possess thus ensuring a community of respect, trust and harmony.
