'Hired' in the Bible
‘You shall not oppress your neighbor, nor rob him. The wages of a hired man are not to remain with you all night until morning.
‘No layman, however, is to eat the holy gift; a sojourner with the priest or a hired man shall not eat of the holy gift.
All of you shall have the sabbath products of the land for food; yourself, and your male and female slaves, and your hired man and your foreign resident, those who live as aliens with you.
He shall be with you as a hired man, as if he were a sojourner; he shall serve with you until the year of jubilee.
He then with his purchaser shall calculate from the year when he sold himself to him up to the year of jubilee; and the price of his sale shall correspond to the number of years. It is like the days of a hired man that he shall be with him.
Like a man hired year by year he shall be with him; he shall not rule over him with severity in your sight.
