Difference between Hebrew and Greek slaves?

[Deacon_Joseph]

Anyone know the details in the differences between Greek slaves and Hebrew slaves? I thought Hebrew slaves were slaves because they owed a debt, and Greek and Roman slaves were bought, and they were slaves for life.

Greek and Romans could also become slaves due to debt. In Leviticus the Jews were told that Jewish slaves had to be offered their freedom after 7 years. I don’t know if this was required of gentile slaves owned by Jews.
