In the days of the Old Testament slaves were often treated as a part of the family. If it was time for the family to move, under the instruction of the Lord, then the normal way was that the slaves moved with them. If the slave was already married when they became a slave, their spouse joined them in slavery, if the slave was single, they were to remain single throughout their time of slavery. This practice of treating the slaves as belonging to the family is still continued in some Nations today.
