What does the Bible say about the willing Hebrew servant?

Answered in 1 source

Exodus 21 outlines the laws regarding Hebrew servants, emphasizing their freedom after six years of service.

Exodus 21:1-6 presents the practice of Hebrew servitude, highlighting how a Hebrew servant would serve for six years and then gain freedom. This passage is significant as it illustrates not only the regulations around servitude but also serves as a picture of Christ. The willing Hebrew servant chooses to stay with their master out of love, just as Christ freely chose to lay down His life for His people. By understanding this passage in the context of Christ's sacrifice, we see how Old Testament laws reveal New Testament truths about salvation and grace.
