Exodus 21:1-23
“ These are the regulations you must present to Israel.“ If you buy a Hebrew slave, he may serve for no more than six years. Set him free in the seventh year, and he will owe you nothing for his freedom.If he was single when he became your slave, he shall leave single. But if he was married before he became a slave, then his wife must be freed with him.“ If his master gave him a wife while he was a slave and they had sons or daughters, then only the man will be free in the seventh year, but his wife and children will still belong to his master.But the slave may declare,‘ I love my master, my wife, and my children. I don’t want to go free.’If he does this, his master must present him before God. Then his master must take him to the door or doorpost and publicly pierce his ear with an awl. After that, the slave will serve his master for life.“ When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are.If she does not satisfy her owner, he must allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her.But if the slave’s owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave but as a daughter.“ If a man who has married a slave wife takes another wife for himself, he must not neglect the rights of the first wife to food, clothing, and sexual intimacy.If he fails in any of these three obligations, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment.“ Anyone who assaults and kills another person must be put to death.But if it was simply an accident permitted by God, I will appoint a place of refuge where the slayer can run for safety.However, if someone deliberately kills another person, then the slayer must be dragged even from my altar and be put to death.“ Anyone who strikes father or mother must be put to death.“ Kidnappers must be put to death, whether they are caught in possession of their victims or have already sold them as slaves.“ Anyone who dishonors father or mother must be put to death.“ Now suppose two men quarrel, and one hits the other with a stone or fist, and the injured person does not die but is confined to bed.If he is later able to walk outside again, even with a crutch, the assailant will not be punished but must compensate his victim for lost wages and provide for his full recovery.“ If a man beats his male or female slave with a club and the slave dies as a result, the owner must be punished.But if the slave recovers within a day or two, then the owner shall not be punished, since the slave is his property.“ Now suppose two men are fighting, and in the process they accidentally strike a pregnant woman so she gives birth prematurely. If no further injury results, the man who struck the woman must pay the amount of compensation the woman’s husband demands and the judges approve.But if there is further injury, the punishment must match the injury: a life for a life,

Galatians 3:19-20
Why, then, was the law given? It was given alongside the promise to show people their sins. But the law was designed to last only until the coming of the child who was promised. God gave his law through angels to Moses, who was the mediator between God and the people.Now a mediator is helpful if more than one party must reach an agreement. But God, who is one, did not use a mediator when he gave his promise to Abraham.
