• Exodus 21:1-6
• “These are the laws you are to set before them: If you buy a
Hebrew servant, he is to serve you for six years. But in the
seventh year, he shall go free, without paying anything. If he
comes alone, he is to go free alone; but if he has a wife when he
comes, she is to go with him. If his master gives him a wife and
she bears him sons or daughters, the woman and her children
shall belong to her master, and only the man shall go free. “But if
the servant declares, ‘I love my master and my wife and children
and do not want to go free,’ then his master must take him before
the judges. He shall take him to the door or the doorpost and
pierce his ear with an awl. Then he will be his servant for life.”

that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his
righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”
