God Favors Slavery!

Post #1

Post by CJK »

"As for your male and female slaves whom you may have: You may buy your male and female slaves from the nations that are round about you ... You may bequeath them to your sons after you, to inherit as a possession forever." Leviticus 25:44-46

The slaver holders being the upstanding followers of a sadistic God, and the slaves the sub-human heathens.

How interesting.

"When a man strikes his slave, male or female, with a rod and the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. But if the slave survives a day or two, he shall not be punished: for the slave is his money." Exodus 21:20

Hey, I didn't write it. I think it's fascinating how the "unchanging God" has evolved.

That's true. OT slavery meant rape and forced marriage for the young girls. Everyone else just got slaughtered mercilessly. It looks like Paul's morality was a little different than YHWH's.
And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto His people. Exodus 32:14
