How can a book that tells you how to treat slaves possibly be valid moral guide

RE: How can a book that tells you how to treat slaves possibly be valid moral guide
So...let me get this right.

because there is great evil like genocide in the world right now it makes it acceptable that the bible endorses slavery. Note the bible doesn't refer to the concept Drich is trying to hoodwink us. Indeed the Bible specifically tells the Israelites that they were PREVIOUSLY enslaved

It is irrelevant what the dictionary definition in english is the important thing is what it meant in Hebrew and Greek and the terms are ανδράποδο (andrapodo) and עבד(Aved) both mean slave as defined as someone held as property not some modern crap about everyone being a slave
