Leviticus 25:42

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.

For the Israelites are My slaves. They are My slaves that I brought out of the land of Egypt; I am Yahweh your God.

But now, since you have been liberated from sin and have become enslaved to God, you have your fruit, which results in sanctification

—and the end is eternal life!

Were you called while a slave? It should not be a concern to you. But if you can become free, by all means take the opportunity.

“Do not oppress a hired hand who is poor and needy, whether one of your brothers or one of the foreigners residing within a town in your land.

We can buy the poor with silver
and the needy for a pair of sandals
and even sell the chaff!”
