Behar: The Prohibition to Free a Canaanite Slave

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length of article: 1 pageLength of audio: 4 minutes 14 secondsSynopsis: This is the audio version of the 1-page article I wrote on 5/12/23, entitled: Behar: The Prohibition to Free a Canaanite Slave. The Torah permits slavery. Many (including myself) hold that Judaism is philosophically anti-slavery. If so, why are we prohibited to free an eved Canaani? Let me know what you think of my answer.
