“Now when all the princes, and all the people, which had entered into the covenant, heard that every one should let his manservant, and every one his maidservant, go free, that none should serve themselves of them any more, then they obeyed, and let them go.”
The notation 'And all the officials and all the people...agreed that they would set their male and female slaves free' records initial compliance. The people, prompted by the crisis, agreed to this covenant. Crisis awakens covenant consciousness.
