Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nationsThe bible also states that you must let them free if you strike them and that if they seek refuge from you from your neighbor that your neighbor is obligated to provide them asylum and a bed anywhere they want and provide them food. Oh yes, if you have no offspring they inherit the farm.
If you want to play by the rules you have to play by all of them.

..you must let them free if you strike them
..if they seek refuge from you from your neighbor that your neighbor is obligated to provide them asylum
..if you have no offspring they inherit the farm. Sounds like the Ninth Circuit Court was active in Biblical times too.
