No, we're talking about slavery. Read the book. The people getting bought, sold, inherited, captured in war, sexually molested, beaten, and killed are not simply debtors. If a debtor is gored by an ox it isn't the bank that gets paid 30 shekels of silver. Ironic that number.
Servants HAD to be given thier freedom on jubilee no ifs ands or butts. Therefore they had a right to thier freedom after a certain amount of time. Slaves in America had ZERO have rights, they were slaves in perpetuity. So no we're NOT talking about slavery. I like how you guys keep dishonestly trying to frame it as such aka grasping at straws...🤣
