* Genesis 17:13 "... and he that is bought with your money must needs be circumcised" * Exodus 12:44 "But every man's servant (slave) that is bought for money, when thou has circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof." * Leviticus 19:20 "And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman that is a bondsmaid (slave), betrothed to a husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her: she shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death because she was not free."
There is little about slavery in the New Testament: In the New Testament, Paul said that every slave could remain a slave, just as every freeman farmer could remain a freeman farmer. They were not to care for their servitude, because to Christ they will be free. However, they could leave slavery if the opportunity presented itself.
20Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called. 21 Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather. 22For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant. 23Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.
Simply put; it's okay, but you should be punished for killing slaves, and should give slaves their freedom if you break their teeth or blind them (this is not a nice thing to do).
Slaves must be circumcised.
You must free slaves who have served you for six years, and they may keep their wives if they had them to begin with, but their wives and children will belong to you upon the slave's release if the wife was given by you. Either way, you must be sure to give them a nice retirement bonus on their way out.
Women are fair spoils of war! Having killed heathen men, their women, children, and livestock are yours for the taking. You may have your way with the women as you like, but if they are engaged to another, then you must atone by having a priest sacrifice an animal (small price to pay for institutionalised rape).
Should you find an escaped slave, you are not permitted to oppress them or to force them to return to their master.
If enslaving your own family members, you should treat them better than the average slave.
Slaves may have their own slaves.
The punishment for enslaving Hebrews is death.
