...and what does an ot Jew under the whip of a philistine care or know about the future teachings of Jesus?
God as per the arable of the talents and how he has handeled everyone in the O and NT only holds you responsible for what you know to be right and or wrong.
Oh no, enslaving Hebrews isn't allowed unless you're also a Hebrew and they're in debt, and you're not allowed to keep the men longer than 7 years unless you ensnare them by letting them start a family they're not allowed to take along when they go free. Foreigners, on the other hand, may be taken as slaves and treated as property (bought, sold, bequeathed to children, etc.).
The OT does, however, say that you can beat your slaves as long as they don't die right away or lose eyes or teeth. How compassionate. What a loving gwawd.
Oh, and then there's the NT admonition for slaves to obey even cruel masters as one would obey Christ. Neat
Quote:Well riddle me this first... if a psalm is just a song or hymn what does it matter what it says to a NT christian if said Christian can see a level of wrong that an OT jew could not?
Is this or isn't this the word of your god, Drich?
Quote:So does modern society... or can you show me a society that is not build and currently maintain by a slave labor force?
Wait...so are you saying slavery isn't wrong? Am I hearing that correctly? I mean sure, slavery, human trafficking, and labor exploitation are still extant problems despite the fact that they're almost universally reviled by the average member of the public, but, like...we still agree those things are immoral, right?
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
