Does This Bible Verse Support Slavery?

????

How can Christians reconcile passages like Leviticus 25 that seem to validate slavery? In this video, Frank reflects on the words of Jesus to give us insight into the purpose of slavery in the Old Testament and makes a connection between slavery and a modern-day human rights issue. ???? ???????????????????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????????

Leviticus 25:44-46 Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.
@CottonEyedJack101 Says:
GOD delivered the entire Israelite race from slavery, and the New Testament also condemns slave trading. Seems like a gradual movement towards getting rid of slavery, or at least its brutality. I’m glad that slavery is no longer in America, thanks to the grace of GOD Almighty
@ButteBoysATV Says:
Makes it very clear, thanks. Jesus Christ fulfilled the Law and Prophets, and He is Lord. The Messiah had to arrive before the destruction of the Second Temple, and the Lord Jesus Christ is the only candidate! GOD raised Him from the dead to prove to the world that His Son spoke truth. GOD freed the Israelites, an entire race enslaved by the Egyptians

Holy shite the slavery apologists in the comments are absolutely disturbing. It feels like I've taken a step back into the Dark Ages.

A terrible answer for your terrible god. What a horrible answer for a horrible god. You have a slavery loving god. You have an immoral god. Your god is immoral by his own standards. What a contradictory god.

Yes, the bibles are pro slavery. Apologists have to do a lot of tap-dancing to get past this unless they're honest.

So God's laws/morality is situational?
@jackjohnson2171 Says:
Leviticus 25:44 As for your male and female slaves whom you may have: you may buy male and female slaves from among the nations that are around you. 45 You may also buy from among the strangers who sojourn with you and their clans that are with you, who have been born in your land, and they may be your property. 46 You may bequeath them to your sons after you to inherit as a possession forever. You may make slaves of them, but over your brothers the people of Israel you shall not rule, one over another ruthlessly.
@SideHustle4Moms Says:
thank you for the video. Please explain Deuteronomy 22:28-29 and Exodus 21:20-21 so I can better stand up for the Bible when atheists attack me for believing in it.
@MRCATWRENCH Says:
Frank is trying to blur the line between man’s laws and God’s laws. Aren’t God’s laws the ultimate morality without compromise? God commands obedience to laws that are pretty inconsequential, but on owning and mistreating people as livestock he acquiesces?
@alejandrojoselizano Says:
The bible supports slavery because there is no god.
@joaoboscopf Says:
So God`s morality is not absolute, it is temporary according to ones culture, location and time? Got it!

You tube is illegally censoring people. If you don't want people to say things then why do you exists?
@BryanTodd71 Says:
So when David in Psalm 19:7 said "The law of the Lord is perfect," he didn't actually mean "perfect." He just meant that the Law of the Lord was "a modest improvement over what anyone else had at the time."
@haydenlbray Says:
He’s using a terrible translation… they were possessions, the same word used in the prior verses to describe the relationship of a son to a father. A son is his father’s possession. They could flee and had to be protected, if they were beaten they went free, if they were killed by the master the master was killed, and they were to be loved like a fellow Israelite or a curse would come upon the Israelite. The part about not treating your fellow Israelite with severity bookended the part about bondservants being from gentiles only - whereas they were not to make bondservants of their fellow Israelites. It was nothing about beating gentiles… 🤦🏼‍♂️ God made a nation as a light on a hill, the people were to be kept seperate. Foreigners were welcome to live in the country but not own land as it was gifted to the Hebrews by God. Poor foreigners could sell themselves into bondservantry and be protected.

Deuteronomy 20:10-11 "When you go near a city to fight against it, then proclaim an offer of peace to it. And it shall be that if they accept your offer of peace, and open to you, then all the people who are found in it shall be placed under tribute to you, and serve you." Definitely okayed slavery. You think people would voluntarily be "indentured servants" to the people who are going to take their town? I don't think so. Bonus points for God condoning taking land from people.

Love this all makes sense now
@ivanos_95 Says:
As an honest Christian, I have to admit that the Bible does support a very specific form of slavery, or even violence against the slaves, not only in the Old Covenant, but also confirms it in the New Covenant, so Christians should stop acting like it doesn't, because they're only fooling themselves. However, the reason why the Bible supports those things, is because it doesn't make a distinction between a modern prison-system, and between slavery as such, so the biblical slavery is basically a primitive method of dealing with the criminals, and have nothing to do with chattel slavery.
@Elite_OverTheTop Says:
Bible doesn't support slavery. It only tells you all instructions on how to own slaves, how to treat them and how to bequeath it to your children
@Username34823 Says:
read the Bible and judge for yourselves you cultists. WHY DOESNT GOD CONDEMN IT!!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Because God condones, rape, murder, genocide, literally READ THE BIBLE and put yourself into the shoes of the victims
@ryanmatthews8675 Says:
He doesn't answer the question with evidence but tap dances around it. He lies. He isn't an expert on the Scripture regarding slavery but is an expert on the topic of Biblical slavery. Nah, he cannot deal with this Scripture to fit his narrative.
@adhd_academy Says:
This is also a really great point to bring up whenever someone asks about the 3/5 clause that gave African-Americans the right to vote. A lot of people will not understand and think that Black people had 3/5 of a vote because they think they were worth 3/5 of a person. But if you look closely, the north desperately wanted slavery to end and the south desperately wanted it to thrive, so they made the 3/5 clause as a way to majorly move the needle forward and give the overall population of African-Americans the right to vote. It went from 0/5 to 3/5 in one day which was an enormous incremental win. And then within just a few years, slavery was abolished throughout the entire country. It was the most major steppingstone to end slavery and without the 3/5 clause being an incremental movement, we may still live in a country with slavery for African Americans today. Was it the move we would have wanted? Well, a 5/5 clause would’ve been way better, but the south never would’ve agreed to that and slavery would still thrive today in the south, and the United States would not exist.
@Dave_Langer Says:
Yes the bible supports slavery. Exodus 21:7 7 When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she shall not go free as male slaves do. Leviticus 25:44-46 44 [a]The male and female slaves that you possess—these you shall acquire from the nations round about you. 45 You may also acquire them from among the resident aliens who reside with you, and from their families who are with you, those whom they bore in your land. These you may possess, 46 and bequeath to your children as their hereditary possession forever. You may treat them as slaves. But none of you shall lord it harshly over any of your fellow Israelites. Exodus 21:4  If his master gives him a wife, and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall belong to her master, and he shall leave alone.
@bingbong8239 Says:
Frank: "God allowed slavery cause it was part of their culture." Well, today'a culture is accepting of gay people and doesn’t see it as wrong. Does that mean God must assimilate to our ways of life? Is he the objective morality giver or not?
@ufpride83 Says:
Best part about being a Zoroastrian is never having to defend slavery because Ahura Mazda and his prophet Zarathustra figured out and proclaimed slavery and bondage is always evil and against God thousands of years before Yahweh, Jesus, Allah, and all the prophets and followers of the abrahamic religions could figure it out, Stop following this barbaric Iron Age Canaanite warrior storm god Yahweh and follow the true God who knows slavery is evil in Ahura Mazda
@karlwhite2733 Says:
It absolutely does.
@JesusisliterallyHim Says:
I think we should make it common knowledge that slavery in the bible is not slavery of the 18th century. It was not based on skin tone but on paying off debts or the country/cities finances
@djidjine5082 Says:
The Bible was ok with slavery in the Old Testament. The thing is the slave masters were supposed to treat the slaves well. On the seventh year, they were supposed to let them go. If the slaves wanted to stay, they had the choice.
@albertdepeal9658 Says:
It would be much better to be the slave of a Jew than of a pagan. And its odd how pagans today criticize the Bible when their own history was much worse in these matters.

@martinchivers7341 Says:
Cheap labor with no work rights is bad enough, but it is still not slavery. Laws and rules applied on slaves are a different set from those applied to impoverished people in dire working conditions. Slavery is owning a person as property whether paid for or inherited, with no choice for a slave to set himself/herself free without owner's consent. Some may like to point out that slaves are better treated by some owners than by others, but it is still slavery nonetheless. Slavery is abhorrent and the bible did not condemn it but rather condoned it. Exodus 21:20-21 [20]And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished. [21]Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money. Galatians 4 [30]Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.
@michaelburgess5569 Says:
He still didn't answer the QUESTION. The Christians always dance around this topic of Slavery. If it's in the Bible it's true and the Christians MUST obey. All in the name of God. Just THINK about that for a minute or two. God didn't do that, man did it and told people that God told them to do it. It's ALL about CONTROL.
@mikerevendale4810 Says:
That question is based solely from the use of corrupted texts and the lack of due diligence. One fact is clear: slavery is not endorsed anywhere in the Bible. The KJV mentions slaves exactly twice, once in the Old Testament and once in the New; and in both cases it's not mentioned in a positive way. You'll find servants, and bond servants, in that translation that are NOT slaves in their historical context. What's worse is that "modern" English translations have changed the Word into a lie. The NKJV added slave(s) 65 times, the ESV 127 times, the NIV 181 times, and the NAS a whopping 267 times! It's no wonder that those who deny and mock GOD are using these corrupt translations as "evidence" for their rebellion.
@msmd3295 Says:
Old Testament was just made for ancient Israelites? And that what’s in it “doesn’t apply for all time”? Then why do people quote passages from that text and act as though they still apply? The Old Testament even condoned murder and slavery and yet it’s still part of the “Bible”. Worst of all just because something is in the Bible people believe every word of the Bible is “god’s spoken word” and is infallible. Finally… the moral teaching found in both testaments can be found throughout various ancient cultures Before anyone there was exposed to Christianity.
@itstoasty7089 Says:
One thing is being a physical, beaten slave to another person. Another thing is to be a slave to hard labor for wage. One thing is to be a slave to pornography. A final thing is to be a slave to the Lord of all creation, Jesus Christ. There is a difference in context and meaning for the word “slave”.
@HumbleServantEmunah Says:
In Romans 1:1, Paul calls himself "a slave of Christ Jesus" and later in Romans 6:18, Paul writes "You have been set free from sin and become slaves to righteousness." Also in Galatians, Paul writes on the nature of slavery within the kingdom of God.

@davidyoder5890 Says:
I disagree with the premise that old testament law isn't the law for all time. According to Jeremiah 31:33, the Lord will write His law on the hearts of believers during the end times, and that law _is_ the old testament law.
@ColonelBackFromTheDead Says:
So yes, the bible supports slavery in the old testament.
