    Under God's law, why was it okay to beat your slave as long as you didn't kill them? Ex 21:20

    • Because the slave owner bought them with their own money

    • Because slaves work harder when they get a good beating

    • Because slaves were meant to be beaten from the beginning of time

    Correct Answer
    A. Because the slave owner bought them with their own money
    Explanation
    The correct answer suggests that it was considered acceptable to beat a slave as long as they were not killed because the slave owner had purchased the slave with their own money. This implies that since the slave was considered the property of the owner, they had the right to treat them as they saw fit, as long as they did not cause their death. This explanation reflects the historical context where slavery was prevalent and viewed as a form of ownership and control over other human beings.

    • They are forgiven

    • They are hypocrites

    • It was okay because it was a bad law to begin with

    Correct Answer
    A. They are hypocrites
    Explanation
    In Matthew 15:1-7, Jesus criticizes the Pharisees for their hypocrisy. He points out that they prioritize their traditions and human-made rules over the commandments of God. Jesus highlights their failure to honor their parents by using a loophole in the law, which allows them to avoid providing financial support to their parents by declaring their resources as "devoted to God." By doing so, Jesus implies that the Pharisees are hypocritical in their observance of God's law and neglecting the true essence of obedience and righteousness.

    According to God's law, if someone kills another person by accident, is the person who killed them guilty of murder? Ex 21:12-13

    • No, because God allowed that person to be killed

    • Yes, because the person who had the accident should have been more careful

    • Yes, because life is precious, accident or not

    Correct Answer
    A. No, because God allowed that person to be killed
    Explanation
    The correct answer is No, because God allowed that person to be killed. According to Ex 21:12-13, if someone kills another person by accident, they are not guilty of murder. The passage states that if it was not premeditated and God allowed it to happen, then the person who caused the accident shall be provided a safe place to flee to.
