He shall have no right to sell her to a foreign people, since he has dealt deceitfully with her.”
A Hebrew bondmaid may not be sold to anybody whatever, Israelite or heathen; and if she regains her freedom, the prohibition applies to her father as it formerly did to her owner.* * Mishneh Torah, Kinyan, Hilchoth Abadim IV, 10, Commentaries
