Abaye said that because the law (in and elsewhere) required the master to treat a Hebrew slave well — and as an equal in food, drink, and sleeping accommodations — it was said that buying a Hebrew slave was like buying a master. The Rabbis taught in a Baraita that the words of regarding the Hebrew servant, "he fares well "with you"," indicate that the Hebrew servant had to be "with" — that is, equal to — the master in food and drink. Thus, the master could not eat white bread and have the servant eat black bread. The master could not drink old wine and have the servant drink new wine. The master could not sleep on a feather bed and have the servant sleep on straw. Hence, they said that buying a Hebrew servant was like buying a master. Similarly, Rabbi Simeon deduced from the words of , "Then he shall go out from you, he and his children "with him"," that the master was liable to provide for the servant's children until the servant went out. And Rabbi Simeon deduced from the words of , "If he is married, then his wife shall go out "with him"," that the master was responsible to provide for the servant's wife, as well.
