CuteMadridista:Passing slaves to your children, and their own children is the equivalent of leaving a company to your kids. Your employees would become their own employees too. Imagine someone who's not too familiar with how football clubs are run, reading that clubs loan out players. Sure, he will swear that players were being subjected to a most inhumane form of treatment. But if he pays close attention to the context, he'll know better. Look at the few examples of relationships that were mentioned of slaves and masters in the Bible, then you'd see obviously that it's nothing short of today's employee/employer relationship. Look at Joseph, a slave, his job description as a slave was to manage Potiphar's entire enterprise, so much so, that the man only bothered himself with his food. Talk about Joseph being a CEO. or Look at Abraham. look at how Laban was so happy to see his slave arrive, because that slave was a loaded big boy who had arrived in their home. He was just dashing out expensive stuffs. You think that slave saw himself as being maltreated. Or you think asking him to go free would have meant anything other than a sack from a great job? 2 Likes 1 Share |

DeSepiero:The slavery that the Bible regulates on was basically employment. Slavery had a governing contract, so does employment, and buying football players. Technically, football players are merely properties of their various clubs, yet they live more comfortably than most folks without such a contract. This should help you get the right perspectives, when the Bible says that slaves were properties of the masters. Doesn't necessarily mean the relationship was inhumane. 1 Like |

awesomeJ: I cut out the rest cuz they're too nebulous 1. Employees in any company can walk at any time, if you work in a company you're free to resign and leave non Hebrew slaves are not allowed to leave if they want to. Big difference!!! also slaves you bought are not to be paid any wages while employees are paid their wages, another difference!!! 2. Clubs don't just "loan out players" that's a dishonest representation of how loans are done. let me explain for the readers a. The club tells a player say Kovačić that he's not gonna get game time in his parent club, Real Madrid b. His agent talks with him and he looks for a club that promises his client game time c. he finds a club and they negotiate with the parent club on the terms for the loan, who would be paying the player's wages or what percentage each team would pay and the minimum game time the player must be involved in (usually in minutes) d. the parent club then receives an official bid from the other club, they agree to it subject to the player himself agreeing to the deal e. the player agrees and he moves for the stipulated duration of the loan. mind you, the player can disagree with the deal at this point if he wants so the final power still belongs to the player himself This is how loan deals work in football but the slave in the bible has no say on whether they don't want to be sold or loaned. all the power belongs to the buyer and the seller. I find this reply of yours highly dishonest to say the least 3 Likes |

awesomeJ: I am not to look at it through your own bias view. If there is something I dislike is dishonesty. What do you mean by perhaps, when it was clearly stated that they can enslave foreigners and their children for a life time? And there were those who were bought for some other time frames. How do you this to be true? How did you know that they were not over powered captured and sold? The buyer did them no favor, even Yahweh their God knew that the condition the slaves were in was bad and warned them NOT to do same to their fellow Israeli brothers.
Yes, I would. If you go and buy a person today that is willing to be a slave you will be arrested. You can try it. Go to an open slave market I Libya buy anyone that was sold willingly. Bring him to Nigeria and treat him the way you would a slave openly and see if you won't be arrested regardless of the fact that he willingly sold himself to you. No where in the bible was it stated that the foreignersgave themselves up as slaves. That is your own making. The people were to buy the slaves is what was written . Why buy something when it is given up for free? You are just trying to spin it and it's just exposing you. Slavery is bad and the fact that a God was at the center of it all giving injunction on how it is to be conducted says it all. 5 Likes 1 Share |

DeSepiero: Sincerely, I almost wanted to go off on him but had to restrain myself. The extent these guys go to defend absurdity away is really apalling. He is trying to compare slavery in the ible to employment. Something that even the God tacitly agree is wrong by warning the people NOT to do it among themselves bit only among the foreigners living among them. 5 Likes 1 Share |

awesomeJ: Shut up and stop telling lies. Footballers are NOT properties of their clubs. They can terminate their contracts anytime they feel like. Slaves in the bible could not. They are to be treatedas properties. Even their children were to be treated as properties. The relationship was inhumane because according to the bible they were not allowed to own properties, they could be branded, they were not paid any wages etc. They belonged to the master and did what ever the master told them. 2 Likes 1 Share |

dalaman: At the words in bold, that is wrong. Clauses protect and prevent such terminations. A 5 year clause must be seen through even to the detriment of the club or player. No player simply just walks away anytime they feel like it. 1 Like |

dalaman: Again wrong! That Is SOLELY a choice to be made by the club and in this case, OWNER of the player. They weigh player value against offered value and can easily turn it down. Why do you think some players are loaned to other clubs rather than sold? Why are players treated as commodities? They are sold, bought, loaned! These are people being treated same way slaves are based on buying and selling and lending. 2 Likes |

CuteMadridista:Slaves who don't get paid, do not cos they already got their payment upfront. By the way where did you get that slaves didn't get paid, and where did you read that all non Hebrew slaves had to be perpetual slaves? And no matter how much fancy is put into loaning out football players, that phrase "loan out" is still in the same class as "pass down to children" |

DeSepiero: In the bible context the slaves opinion did count. Best output is always considered per investment made. A slave is bought for a time as chosen by the slave or as agreed between the slave and his buyer often so the proceeds can be used to better the life of his family or so. They are not different. What you see is slavery. What I see is the context behind the slavery. If dangote offered you a Behind house with a lovely brand new SUV and a lump salary so you can be his slave for 7 years away would you say? To answer this you can ask bobrisky who is someone's deliberate chosen slave for sake of luxury. |

butterflylion: Not true, contracts do get terminated regardless of clauses. Many players havebeen paid off by their teams and their contracts terminated. Some players refuse to train with their teams and force their teamsto terminate their contracts. Players have a say when they are being loaned out. If they don't want to go no club can loan them against their wish. Why are players treated as commodities? They are sold, bought, loaned! Players are not treated as commodities because they have the right to say if they are going out or not. They have a say in what ever transaction they are invovked in and they are heavily paid usually. They are consulted before any move is made. How many slaves or commodities are consulted before they are sold out? According to the bible slaves and their kids can be passed of as inheritance to children of their masters. How many footballers are treated that way. Stop this your yeye silliness abeg. 1 Like |

awesomeJ: just saw this part you added absolutely not! the player has the right not to be passed to the other club! if Madrid decides that they want to loan Kovačić to Arsenal and arsenal agrees. Madrid would still have to go to Kovačić to tell him that arsenal want to have him for a year and state the terms. Kovačić, after reading the terms, may still say he doesn't want to leave on loan and would stay at the club or tell the club to find another club for him or say he wants to leave to arsenal on a permanent basis. all these show the kind of final power the player has and nothing can be done without his consent But non Hebrew slaves has no such right, the owner simply passes him unto his children without his consent and the children passes him unto their Father's grandchildren You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly. - Leviticus 25:46 so yeah the difference is huge, stop the dishonesty 4 Likes |

CuteMadridista: Leviticus 25 from verse 8 8 “‘Count off seven sabbath years—seven times seven years—so that the seven sabbath years amount to a period of forty-nine years. 9 Then have the trumpet sounded everywhere on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement sound the trumpet throughout your land. 10 Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you; each of you is to return to your family property and to your own clan. 11 The fiftieth year shall be a jubilee for you; do not sow and do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the untended vines. 12 For it is a jubilee and is to be holy for you; eat only what is taken directly from the fields.
