What does the Bible say about civil law in Exodus?

Answered in 1 source

Exodus outlines civil laws given by God to Israel, with the first being about Hebrew bond servants.

In Exodus 21:1-6, the civil law concerning Hebrew bond servants is presented. This law stipulates that a Hebrew servant serves for six years and is to be set free in the seventh year, signifying both the grace of release and the idea of redemption. This establishes the framework for how God's people were to interact with one another under His governance, emphasizing the importance of justice and mercy in human relationships, reflective of the greater redemptive act of Christ.
