Slavery From A Pro-Torah Perspective:
Did God promote slavery? Is God a moral monster? What does the Bible say about slavery? What are we to do with passages that seem to approve of owning slaves? These resources investigate slavery as discussed within the Old and New Testament from a pro-torah perspective.
Does God Approve of Slavery?
The most significant event of the entire Torah is the Exodus of Ancient Israel from Egypt, and the deliverance of the Israelites from their servitude to Pharaoh. Moses admonished the people in Exodus 13:3, “Remember this day in which you went out from Egypt, from the house of slavery; for by a powerful hand the LORD brought you out from this place.”There is no doubting the fact that Ancient Israel was removed m’beit avadim (מִבֵּ֣ית עֲבָדִ֔ים) or “from the house of slavery.”
