'Master' in the Bible

If his master gives him a wife and she bears for him sons or daughters, the wife and her children will belong to her master, and [the slave] will go out single.

But if the slave explicitly says, "I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free,"

his master will present him to God and bring him to the door or to the doorpost, and his master will pierce his ear with an awl, and he will serve him forever.

If {she does not please her master} who selected her, he will allow her to be redeemed; he has no authority to sell her to foreign people, since he has dealt treacherously with her.

If the ox gores a male slave or a female slave, he will give thirty shekels of silver to his master, and the ox will be stoned.
