Why is there no reference to Biblical slavery apart from the captivity of the Jews in Egypt? I know that the enslavement of others by the Jews is controversial (in that the Bible doesn't seem to "condemn" the practice, but I'm sure there are good reasons why either I'm wrong in that or for God's overlooking the practice.
In any event, it is a debate I often have with moral relativists and I was hoping to find something about it here in my own (Christan) people.
- I agree completely. I have posted several Biblical references. CEinhorn 01:55, 13 March 2007 (EDT)
"ancient Egypt, where Hebrews were slaves."
There's absolutely no historical evidence for this outside of Exodus.
