Proverbs: Servants and Masters

ProverbsSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg touches upon various human relationships as espoused in the book of Proverbs. He notes that relationships between brothers and friends are not straightforward, and that the government has historically played a role in defining various relationships, including those between masters and servants. Gregg emphasizes that the practice of slavery, while prevalent throughout history, was often immoral and abusive, with enslaved individuals often having abusive owners, against their will. Despite this, he notes that it was also possible for masters to show genuine care for their servants and that the complex nature of human relationships has been a perennial theme in Proverbs.
