Believers use principles from Scripture to help covenant members climb out of debt and earn a living.
With the Ten Commandments given, the Lord now provides practical statutes for daily life among His people—what Scripture later calls the Book of the Covenant. Exodus 21 begins with regulations concerning Hebrew servants. This is not race-based chattel slavery or man-stealing (which is a capital offense). It is voluntary, time-limited indentured service that offered a path out of crushing debt and a fresh start.
God’s law protected the vulnerable: service lasted no longer than six years, release came in the seventh year, families were considered, and generous provision was to be made upon release. The principles remain relevant. God’s people are called to help one another climb out of financial bondage, work diligently, and use the resources and wisdom He provides so that covenant members can move from debt to freedom and productive living under His care.
