Kiddushin 14B

למסולים שאין לו עקב! אם כן ניכתוב קרא ״נעל״, מאי ״הנעל״? שמעת מינה תרתי.

sandals [mesulayim] that have no heels, which do not qualify as shoes. The Talmud answers: If so, that the term is stated only for that purpose, let the verse write “shoe.” What is the meaning of “the shoe”? Learn the two previously stated conclusions from it.

מתני׳ עבד עברי נקנה בכסף ובשטר, וקונה עצמו בשנים, וביובל, ובגרעון כסף. יתירה עליו אמה העבריה שקונה את עצמה בסימנין. הנרצע, נקנה ברציעה, וקונה את עצמו ביובל, ובמיתת האדון.

Mishnah: A Hebrew slave can be acquired by his master through money or through a document, and he can acquire himself, i.e., he is emancipated, through years, i.e., when he completes his 6 years of labor, or through the advent of the Jubilee Year, or through the deduction of money. The slave can redeem himself during the 6 years by paying for his remaining years of slavery. A Hebrew female slave has one mode of emancipation more than him, as she acquires herself through signs indicating puberty. A slave who is pierced after serving 6 years is acquired as a slave for a longer period through piercing his ear with an awl, and he acquires himself through the advent of the Jubilee Year or through the death of the master.

גמ׳ עבד עברי נקנה בכסף. מנלן? אמר קרא: ״מכסף מקנתו״⁠ – מלמד שנקנה בכסף. אשכחן עבד עברי הנמכר לנכרי, הואיל וכל קנינו בכסף,

Talmud: The Mishnah teaches that a Hebrew slave can be acquired through money. The Talmud asks: From where do we derive this halakha? The Talmud answers that the verse states: “Out of the money that he was bought for” (Leviticus 25:51), which teaches that he can be acquired through money. The Talmud asks: We found that a Hebrew slave who is sold to a non-Jew is acquired with money, which is the case discussed in that verse, but this proves nothing with regard to a Jew sold to a Jew. One could argue that since all of the acquisitions of a non-Jew are performed only with money, he can likewise purchase a Hebrew slave with money.
