Slavery was commonplace in ancient times—still is today in parts of the world. The difference with the Israelites is that most slaves went into servitude voluntarily, and even if bought were to be released after six years, iunless they chose to stay with their masters.
God was dealing with an ignorant and backward people, not modern society. Don’t judge the past by the standards of today. That’s what the left does.
And no, I don’t believe in Slavery, and i don’t think God does either, but therre’s no way, especially before Christ’s time, that Man was going to change overnight. But God sl;owly and surely led the way, teaching him Justice and Mercy, and the difference between the two.
"Modern society"????
ROFL!!!
"Modern society" holds that abortion is a sacred right, that buggery is commendable, that two men can marry each other, that cutting a man's manhood off turns him into a woman, that White men are evil, that private property is theft, that children are property of the almighty State ...
I think I'll judge "modern society" by the standards of those supposedly "ignorant and backward" people ... and condemn "modern society" to hell where it came from.
