I just used the first one I could find.
Surely you don't condone slavery, God did. Surely you don't condone keeping virgin girls as spoils of war; God did.
Jesus corrected this.
If this was the first one you could find, you clearly haven't done any serious thinking on the matter at all.
Surely you don't condone slavery, God did.
In a situation where the alternative is death by starvation or servitude, the compassionate alternative is servitude. We have slavery today - it's called public assistance.
Surely you don't condone keeping virgin girls as spoils of war; God did.
If the alternative is to either leave a young woman out in the wilderness to die of exposure or to take her in and make her part of your household, the moral choice is clear.
Jesus corrected this.
There was nothing to correct. As Jesus said, He came not to erase a jot or a tittle from the Torah but to fulfill it.
No, God just realized that slavery was a part of life. People sold themselves into bondservanthood when they couldn't pay their bills or didn't have a way to earn a living. They didn't have bankruptcy court back then. Of course, it was considered a sin for a man capable of working to sit on his butt and take charity. Other than that, slaves consisted of prisoners of war. Back in those days, you couldn't afford to have a bunch of prisoners sitting on their butts and getting the best food like those at Gitmo. They had to work to earn their keep.

Would you rather that they have been killed, or that they be left without men to defend them and help care for them so that someone else could come along and rape/murder them?
Jesus corrected this.
In what scripture did Jesus directly address slavery? In fact, anywhere in the New Testament, where does it say slavery should be done away with?
