Laws Concerning Hebrew Servants

Exodus 21:2-6

If thou bye an Ebrewe seruant, he shall serue sixe yeres, and in the seuenth he shall go out free, for nothing.

If he came himselfe alone, he shall goe out himselfe alone: if hee were married, then his wife shall go out with him.

If his master haue giuen him a wife, and she hath borne him sonnes or daughters, he wife and her children shalbe her masters, but he shall goe out himselfe alone.

But if the seruant saye thus, I loue my master, my wife and my children, I will not goe out free,

Then his master shall bring him vnto the Iudges, and set him to the dore, or to the poste, and his master shall bore his eare through with a nawle, and he shall serue him for euer.
