[[Jacob]] ordered his sons to take double money in their hands, i.e. twice the necessary amount (Genesis 43:12 , [[Genesis]] 43:15 ). If a thief be caught with a living animal he was to restore double (Exodus 22:4 ); if property be stolen out of the house of one to whom it is entrusted he was to restore double (Exodus 22:7 , Exodus 22:9 ).

The classic phrases in the New [[Testament]] are those used by James to represent instability and a wavering disposition, δίψυχος , <i> '''''dı́psuchos''''' </i> , literally, "doubleminded" (James 1:8; James 4:8 ). </p> | ||
