Freedom


The law of Moses pointed out the cases in which the servants of "the Hebrews were to receive their freedom (Ex. 21:2-4, 7, 8;" "Lev. 25:39-42, 47-55; Deut. 15:12-18). Under the Roman law the" "freeman (ingenuus) was one born free; the "freedman" "(libertinus) was a manumitted slave, and had not equal rights" with the freeman (Acts 22:28; comp. Acts 16:37-39; 21:39; 22:25; "25:11, 12)."
