Jews owned slaves until the 18th century per Wikipedo. I don’t think it is even prohibited in the Bible.

Not for Jews, maybe, since they reject the New Testament.

However, for those of us who consider the News Testament to be the Word of God.

1Tim 1:10 NIV

8 We know that the law is good if one uses it properly. 9 We also know that the law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, 10 for the sexually immoral, for those practicing homosexuality, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine 11 that conforms to the gospel concerning the glory of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me.

Having said that, it’s probably situational a bit. I might own slaves, but if I spent resources teaching them how to read and skills to provide for themselves so, when they are free, they become middle-class, did I do them harM
