TRIGGER WARNING: This episode discusses provisions for slavery in the Old Testament law and the subject may be distressing. The context can be found on my blog for Day 142
i do believe the slave/servant.... were treated to the equivalent of a common worker today... in ancient egypts times. 7:37 "dignity and hospitality" judges 7; 3,7 3Now therefore go to, proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whosoever is fearful and afraid, let him return and depart early from mount Gilead. And there returned of the people twenty and two thousand; and there remained ten thousand.7And the LORD said unto Gideon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place. and let all the other people go every man unto his place..... this i'd say would be a equivalent of abolishing slavery..

That's an interesting way to read it. Thank you for sharing.
