Leviticus 25

Quote:44 Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.
45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.
46 And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigour.

Are there any prescriptive verses that say to go get some non-Israelite slaves, or do they all describe behaviors towards slaves? If you can't produce any then the Bible does not prescribe or endorse slavery. I'm not the one splitting hairs. I haven't even focused on the semantic arguments of servant vs slave, while the entirety of this board is splitting hairs on what to endorse means. If the argument and definition of endorse were the same then I would agree that the Bible is descriptive, and therefore implicitly supports, certain treatment of slaves and doesn't say no to all types of slavery. But you can't even make that case by your own quotation of scriptures, as slavery is prescriptively limited against certain people.

As a Christian, IMO, I believe the Bible does teach slavery to one God, and that all men have masters. I doubt our definitions of slavery would match in this case though. Looks like we're not making any headway on this topic, anyone want to prod forward on misogyny?
We are not making headway, since you obviously chose to ignore what i posted, but ill repeat it again:

THE BIBLE EXPLAINS HOW TO OWN ANOTHER HUMAN BEING AND PASS IT DOWN TO YOUR CHILDREN (like any other of your belongings). Its completely irrelevant to the topic (but your last resort to deflect from it) what fucking LABEL you attach to the state of this human being you own. YOUR CHILDREN ARE INHERITING THIS *insert your fucking favourite apologist term here* HUMAN BEING FROM YOU.

What is so fucking hard to understand about this?
