Thematic Bible: Duty of, toward servants


Thematic Bible



You shall not oppress a hired servant who is poor and needy, whether he be of your brothers, or of your foreigners who are in your land within your gates:




in his day you shall give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down on it; for he is poor, and sets his heart on it: lest he cry against you to Yahweh, and it be sin to you.





Didn't he who made me in the womb make him? Didn't one fashion us in the womb?

"If I have despised the cause of my male servant or of my female servant, when they contended with me;


no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.






When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.
