Does the Bible Endorse Slavery??

In this video I will be looking at an often misunderstood concept: slavery as found in the Bible. Does the Bible support slavery? Why does the Bible give instructions regarding slavery in the first place? I will try to answer those questions in the video.

Also, I forgot to include these couple of verses in my video:
Were you called while a slave? Don’t let it concern you. But if you can become free, by all means take the opportunity. For he who is called by the Lord as a slave is the Lord’s freedman. Likewise he who is called as a free man is Christ’s slave. (1 Corinthians 7:21-22). Paul is saying that if a slave has opportunity to become free (which certainly did happen) - then they should take it. But then he further explains that ALL Christians are to be considered slaves of Jesus Christ. While all slaves are to also see themselves as being free in Christ!!
