We continue to learn about the rabbis’ understandings of our Mishna (Kiddushin 14).
The rabbis interpret the possible meaning of “She shall not go out as the men slaves.” For the rabbis, this refers to a Hebrew maidservant’s acquisition and release from slavery compared with those of a Canaanite slave.
They consider, for example, whether or not a document is required in all circumstances.
We continue exploring the Jewish Maidservant’s status and development as intrabiblical exegesis.
