Exodus 21:2-6 (New International Version) 2 "If you buy a Hebrew servant, he is to serve you for six years. Also 3,4,5… & 6 Then his master must take him before the judges. He shall take him to the door or the doorpost and pierce his ear with an awl. Then he will be his servant for life. Also: Exodus 21:7-11, Exodus 21:32, Deuteronomy 20:13-14, Leviticus 25:44-46, Deuteronomy 15:16-17, Deuteronomy 20:13-14, Joel 3:8, Matthew 8:5-13, Matthew 10:24-25, Luke 19:11-27, John 13:16, Ephesians 6:5, Colossians 3:22, Colossians 4:1, I Timothy 6:1, Titus 2:9-10… Commandment Ten "Neither shall you desire your neighbor's house, or field, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor." Even in the new testiment Jesus ignores it and never adresses the issue. Where is here any reference to slavery being opposed?
