Are you stupid?
THOU SHALT NOT STEAL is one of the 10 commandments, so if the man is someones property as you say, then that already covered under the 10 commandments.
However "he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death." is referring to kidnapping and selling someone into servitude or forcing them into servitude.
You can only "steal" something that's someone else's property. If human beings can be someone else's property............and magic book says they can be..............then ofc you can't steal them.
Problem?
