Midrash sobre Miqueas 2:2

R. Juda said in the name of Rab: "What does the passage (Micha 2, 2) So the friend, the master and his house, and the master and his heritage, mean? It happened that a carpenter fell in love with his masters wife. Once, when his employer was in need of a loan, the employee said to his master: 'Send your wife to me and I will send you the money that you need.' The master sent his wife to him and the employee kept her there three days. The master came to his employee and said to him: 'Where is my wife, whom I sent to you?' The employee said: 'I sent her home immediately after she came, but I heard that ruffians met her while she was on her way home.' The master said; "What shall I do now?' 'If thou wouldst listen to my advice,' said the employee, 'you would divorce her.' 'But how can I, answered the master, 'since her dowry amounts to a great sum of money?' Whereupon the employee said: 'I will lend you the money to repay her.' He immediately went and divorced her. The employee forthwith married her. When the time of payment expired and the employer was unable to pay, the employee said to his master: 'Repay me by working for me.' While husband and wife were sitting, eating and drinking, he (the former husband), while serving them, dropped tears from his eyes which fell into the glasses of his employer. At this moment a decree to destroy Jerusalem was passed."

"You shall not covet": Rebbi says: One verse states "You shall not covet," and, another, (Devarim 5:18) "You shall not desire." How are these two verses to be reconciled? As positing liability for desiring in itself and for coveting in itself, and as teaching that if one desires, in the end he will covet, i.e., "Do not desire and you will not covet." And if he does covet, in the end, he will use force and steal, as it is written (Micah 2:2) "and they will covet fields and steal (them)."

This is what God said to Israel: My children what do I seek from you? I seek no more than that you love one another, and honor one another, and that you have awe for one another
