How you thought that God's intention wasn't to establish His Kingdom? That is, He didn't want to make a perfect country. It's something worth considering.
You see, the rules about slavery written in the exodus statement come from god himself. If he didn't like slavery, why makes rules about how to treat slaves, and not just say 'hey, slavery, don't practice that'. I just checked with my own bible - after the basic commandments, there is a whole list of which in the start is made clear that GOD wants the people to obey these rules too.
Are you statler in disguise?
