Re: Love Slave - Exodus 21
Amen, HaShaliach,
Now, Hebrews 10 made one little difference in quoting the Psalm.- While Hebrews 10:5 says “but a body hast thou prepared me:”, Psalm 40:6 says, “mine ears hast thou opened.”
- But the idea is the same.
- Having one’s EARS DIGGED or OPENED refers to the BORING through with an aul while held against the master’s door.
- It depicted ABSOLUTE WILLINGNESS TO HEAR EVERY COMMAND from the master forevermore in absolute sacrifice of the servant’s life and freedom.
- And to say BUT A BODY HAST THOU PREPARED ME in the same instance would also mean the same thing.
- HE HAD TO OBEY the Father’s will BY SACRIFICING HIS BODY on the cross.
The bible calls Jesus' death on the cross an act of the most astounding obedience and servitude to God that was ever possible.
Php 2:8 KJV And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Heb 5:8-9 KJV Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; (9) And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; It is not just obedience in dying on the cross that is the point, though that is incredibly awesome in itself!- But it is the unbelievable degree of obedience Jesus lived during His entire life that caused him to actually never commit a single sin, and be THAT HOLY an offering and sacrifice that led God to blow our minds with an overwhelming degree of blessings that we receive as a result!
Imagine living so holy a life of obedience for 33 years to not so much as sin a single time.

Re: Love Slave - Exodus 21
EXCELLENT STUFF! I got so much out of this that I decided to copy and paste it, then sent it to my son who is at Camp Geiger training as a Marine. He will be deployed to Afghanistan soon from what he's heard -- I am hoping that this Bible study will touch my son as much as it touched me. I am praying that this will show my son how much Jesus loves him. So thank you for posting this! Good stuff!!!

Wow, that would be so wonderful to know your son is blessed and to know that beyond any doubt while he is deployed! Praise God!

Re: Love Slave - Exodus 21
That's pretty interesting.
On the issue of slaves leaving without their family, I was thinking this didn't necessarily mean his marriage was annulled, contrary to the law.
Perhaps what it meant was his wife and children remained servants of the master
