This chapter contains legal provisions as an elaboration of the Ten
Commandments. It deals with an individual's rights. This chapter may be regarded
as the Bill of Rights for the Hebrew people. The outline is from Burton
Coffman’s Commentary on Exodus.

serve?

Ans.:
If he were married, his wife would go out
with him.
3. What if the slave did not want to leave his master and did not
want his freedom?

We do not know what Jesus, or angels or any Bible character looks like. We use
pictures to represent Bible people and places to help the children to relate to
the story. Please explain to your child that no one knows what any of it looked
like except from what we read about in the Bible or in history books
