The duration of enslavement varied depending on the circumstances. Slaves could be owned for a lifetime, inherited as property, or sold to other owners. Some slaves could gain freedom through manumission, escape, or emancipation efforts like abolition movements or legislative acts.

What is behind Deuteronomy 1516?

Roman Catholic AnswerIf you are referring to Deuteronomy 15:26, this is the section of Deutronomy dealing with the Sabbath year. If you are a Hebrew slave of a Hebrew, he must grant you your freedom in the seventh year. The slave is granted freedom, but not the wife and family who were given to him by the slave owner. Because of this, he might have wanted to remain as a slave, to remain with his wife. In this case, the pierced ear was a permanent sign that you were a slave for the rest of your life.
