Then the human race has not been saved, the birth of Christ has brought us no salvation, the writings of all the prophets have ...

It was penal to harbor a slave, or to keep one caught as a fugitive.(66) Any injury done to him was paid for, and his master received the damages.(67) But he was free to marry a free woman and the children were free.

He was subject to mutilation for assaulting a free man, or repudiating his master.(68) But his master had to pay for ...
