[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] [i]Slaves are captives forced to be another's property forever as well as their children after comiting no crime other than being of another race or creed.[/i] Say it with me, Jason: in our society. We are NOT talking about our society. In the time period in question, the slaves we seem to have reduced our discussion to were a) existing slaves that were bought from people passing through, or b) prisoners of war. Slaves that were bought from foreigners passing through the country were better off with a Hebrew master than with their foreign master, so buying one would actually be a good thing for them. As for prisoners of war, again, what alternative for them would you propose? (Always under the assumption that all wars are just, which was the assumption that the law was given under.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
