A proposito di questo titolo
In this episode we will look at some of the prohibitions to stop institutional slavery, and some of the laws designed to prevent slavery by stopping poverty and injustice.
Concerning foreigners, God does ban institutional slavery within Israel. The first thing that is to keep Israel from making slaves out of those who are permanent residents of Israel but not of the family of Abraham is the command to love them. The second thing that is to keep Israel from institutional slavery is that the stranger is under the same law as the Israeli.
There are some passages of Scripture that we might not think pertain to slavery, but they do. Within each society there are moral deficiencies and practices that help to feed the need or desire for the behavior of slavery. There are also peripheral actions to these main practices that exacerbate the problem of slavery. Whenever we try to combat any negative moral actions, there are always these side issues that feed the main practices. God made laws that targeted the moral deficiencies and practices, along with the peripheral actions and attitudes that feed them.
