Trogunn posted a link which answered plaettons foolish question, I also stumbled across extra-bibilical archaeological records that God didn't allow slaves and strangers to be insulted or brutalized in old Israel.

Archaeology confirms Gods word. The bible is also a historical and very accurate book. It is truly the word of God. Many things have been confirmed as true. Even unusual things. no archaeological finding has ever contradicted Gods word. Why then do you doubt the fact of God becoming human in Christ Jesus and justifying the world who believes?

Here it is people; culled from the source:

Lol. U tro way wetin Bible talk dey post website. Keep deceiving yourself.

When a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod so hard that the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. If, however, the slave survives for a day or two, he is not to be punished, since the slave is his own property. (Exodus 21:20-21 NAB)

Lev. 25:44-46
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. 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. 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.

Musk, I'm tired of saying the same thing to you.

Joshthefirst: Musk, I'm tired of saying the same thing to you.

And I'm tired of reading your lies. The verses are clear enough, abi do I need Holy Spirit to understand them?

smh. Why? Why? Why do you constantly do this??

slavery in whatever guise or form is evil. yahweh should be ashamed of himself for supporting slavery in his "holly" book.

on behalf of our forebears who where forcefully taken from their homes, striped of their dignity,brutalized and dehumanized by slavery i say FU*K YOU yaweh!

nnofaith: slavery in whatever guise or form is evil. yahweh should be ashamed of himself for supporting slavery in his "holly" book.

on behalf of our forebears who where forcefully taken from their homes, striped of their dignity,brutalized and dehumanized by slavery i say FU*K YOU yaweh!

oh yeah. I remember you.















PS: I've never supported slavery, never will. God allowed the israelites to actually do some things he didn't like, like divorce and choose a king while he wanted to be their king. Slavery was a normal act in those days, like having a king was.

The fore-runners of eradication of slave trade were christians btw.

one more thing, it's foolish to blame yahweh for the slavery of our forefathers.

Joshthefirst: one more thing, it's foolish to blame yahweh for the slavery of our forefathers.

So who is to blame?

If the white folks could believe in an all loving God yet maltreat humans(blacks) then their God is to blame

Joshthefirst: one more thing, it's foolish to blame yahweh for the slavery of our forefathers.

so who is it wise to blame?

y'all sounding like GOD instituted slavery....i thought we'd some sound minds around here?!
slavery is a phenomenon....it goes outside christianity. everybody can't be equals...somebody must definitely serve another...jez one of nature tinz

nnofaith: so who is it wise to blame?

who is it wise to blame for the killing of twins? Or for the murders of abortion?

btw,slavery still exists around us all...even in milder forms...that very housegal your mother/aunt/wife/sister has....that maid that does all the work around u....its jez meant to be.
somebody's gat to assist another even tho it mit b degrading!

Yh but Yahweh not only supports the worst kind of slavery but instructs it

macof:

Yh but Yahweh not only supports the worst kind of slavery but instructs it

what kind?

What kind of silly thread is this?

So now, a christian called Joshthefirst discards the bible for a website.....Jesus christ! Biblical slavery in the bible doesnt exist because a website said something about God?

Joshthefirst: oh yeah. I remember you.

it is very clear you have no idea what slavery is. stop reading your bible with the guidiance of the holy spirit (whatever that means). Get yourself some history text books.

Joshthefirst: smh. Why? Why? Why do you constantly do this??

Fail thread of the year...

^^

No actually. The thread has served its purpose. As an extra bibilical support showing that slave brutalization was curbed in old israel.
