Deuteronomy 15:17
17then you shall take an awl, and put it through his ear into the door, and he shall be your slave ▼▼Or servant; the Hebrew term ‘ebed designates a range of social and economic roles (see Preface)

you shall do the same. Jeremiah 12:1-2
Jeremiah’s Complaint
1 cRighteous are you, O Lord,when I complain to you;
yet I would plead my case before you.
dWhy does the way of the wicked prosper?
Why do all ewho are treacherous thrive?
2You plant them, and they take root;
they grow and produce fruit;
fyou are near in their mouth
and far from their heart.
John 14:27
27 gPeace I leave with you; hmy peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. iLet not your hearts be troubled, neither jlet them be afraid.
