Listen to Êxodo 21:21
21 mas se sobreviver um ou dois dias, não será castigado; porque é dinheiro seu.

Êxodo 21:21 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 21:21

Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two
And does not die immediately, or the same day, but lives twenty four hours, as the Jewish writers interpret it; so Abendana F24 explains the phrase, "a day or two";

``a day which is as two days, and they are twenty four hours from time to time,''

that is, from the time he was smitten to the time of his continuance; and so it is elsewhere explained F25 by a day we understand a day, which is like two days, that is, from time to time, the meaning of which is, from a certain time in one day to the same in another:

he shall not be punished;
that is, with death;

for he [is] his money;
is bought with his money, and is good as money, and therefore it is a loss sufficient to him to lose him; and it may be reasonably thought he did not smite his servant with an intention to kill him, since he himself is the loser by it.

Êxodo 21:21 In-Context

19 se ele tornar a levantar-se e andar fora sobre o seu bordão, então aquele que o feriu será absolvido; somente lhe pagará o tempo perdido e fará que ele seja completamente curado.
20 Se alguém ferir a seu servo ou a sua serva com pau, e este morrer debaixo da sua mão, certamente será castigado;
21 mas se sobreviver um ou dois dias, não será castigado; porque é dinheiro seu.
22 Se alguns homens brigarem, e um ferir uma mulher grávida, e for causa de que aborte, não resultando, porém, outro dano, este certamente será multado, conforme o que lhe impuser o marido da mulher, e pagará segundo o arbítrio dos juízes;
23 mas se resultar dano, então darás vida por vida,
