“At the end of seven years let ye go every man his brother an Hebrew, which hath been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear.”
The law stated: 'At the end of six years each of you must set free the Hebrew brother or sister.' The legal requirement made the release a solemn duty. Covenant law protects the vulnerable.
