신명기 23:16의 Essay
לֹא־תַסְגִּ֥יר עֶ֖בֶד אֶל־אֲדֹנָ֑יו אֲשֶׁר־יִנָּצֵ֥ל אֵלֶ֖יךָ מֵעִ֥ם אֲדֹנָֽיו׃
종이 그 주인을 피하여 네게로 도망하거든 너는 그 주인에게로 돌리지 말고
The Five Books of Moses, by Everett Fox
Despite the accepted existence of slavery in Israelite society, Deuteronomy deemed it cruel to return fugitive slaves. This contrasts not only with ancient Near Eastern practice but also with some cases in the Bible (e.g., I Sam. 30:15, I Kings 2:39–40) (Greenstein 1985a).
