Sometimes out of economic necessity a man would sell his daughter into slavery. Of course no father would want to do that but in biblical times there was no social security, no welfare, no unemployment agency to tide one over until better times came. You either sold your daughter into slavery so as to replace a dead milk cow which was the only source of income, or everyone starves to death.

Those were very different and difficult times. Notice the statute is how to treat the slave justly. It does not say "And you can beat her near to death if it pleases you oh happy slave owner."

[b]#5 Relevance to modern times[/b]

Of course the statutes on slavery do not apply to these modern times because wonderful capitalism and our advanced economies of scale render unnecessary selling one's daughter into slavery.

It sounds like you are saying that there are valid reasons to disregard the bible, and then there are invalid ones. You think economic evolution is reason enough.  Who is to make that judgment? You?[/quote]
