SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:6

Entonces su amo lo hará llegar a los jueces, y le hará llegar a la puerta o al poste; y su amo le horadará la oreja con lezna, y será su siervo para siempre.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Exodus 21:6

Verse 6. Shall bring him unto the judges] µyhlah la el haelohim, literally, to
God; or, as the Septuagint have it, prov to krithrion qeou, to the judgment of God; who condescended to dwell among his people; who determined all their differences till he had given them laws for all cases, and who, by his omniscience, brought to light the hidden things of dishonesty. See chap. xxii. 8.

Bore his ear through with an awl] This was a ceremony sufficiently significant, as it implied, 1. That he was closely attached to that house and family. 2. That he was bound to hear all his master's orders, and to obey them punctually. Boring of the ear was an ancient custom in the east. It is referred to by Juvenal: - Prior, inquit, ego adsum.

Cur timeam, dubitemve locum defendere? Quamvis Natus ad Euphraten, MOLLES quod in AURE FENESTRAE Arguerint, licet ipse negem.Sat. i. 102.

"First come, first served, he cries; and I, in spite Of your great lordships, will maintain my right: Though born a slave, though my torn EARS are BORED, 'Tis not the birth, 'tis money makes the lord." DRYDEN.

Calmet quotes a saying from Petronius as attesting the same thing; and one from Cicero, in which he rallies a Libyan who pretended he did not hear him: "It is not," said he, "because your ears are not sufficiently bored;" alluding to his having been a slave.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-11 - The laws in this chapter relate to the fifth and sixth commandments and though they differ from our times and customs, nor are they bindin on us, yet they explain the moral law, and the rules of natura justice. The servant, in the state of servitude, was an emblem of tha state of bondage to sin, Satan, and the law, which man is brought int by robbing God of his glory, by the transgression of his precepts Likewise in being made free, he was an emblem of that liberty wherewit Christ, the Son of God, makes free from bondage his people, who ar free indeed; and made so freely, without money and without price, or free grace.
