Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which is escaped from his master unto thee:
An escaped servant who has fled to Israel for refuge must not be handed back to the former master. Such a servant is permitted to remain and live among the people, settling in whatever place and home he himself selects. Once he has taken refuge there, he must not be oppressed.
