This is more evidence that the OT servants had a CHOICE whether or not to obey. Thus not being FORCED.

They had a choice?

The men had to stay with their masters for a certain number of years= NO CHOICE

They couldn't take their wives or children when they were set free= NO CHOICE

The women and children had to stay behind= NO CHOICE

And should they DISOBEY you could righteously beat them within inches of their lives.

Either you're totally fucking stupid, or completely amoral... possibly both.

Why did your supposed savior say nothing about slavery? Slipped his mind? Unimportant?
