Apr 6, 2014 at 5:38 comment added msh210 devirkahan, you question includes an unspoken assumption that the morning blessings are thanks for levels of mitzva obligation. Including that assumption explicitly in your question would clarify it for more readers; citing a source for it would be even better.

Apr 4, 2014 at 20:47 comment added rosends @DoubleAA Maybe even better is the sub category of mitzvot aseh shehazman grama that a women is obligated in.
Apr 4, 2014 at 20:33 comment added rosends @DoubleAA so is kinyan a better area for distinctions? The eved can't make one and retain things -- they are his master's. A woman can. At least an unmarried woman -- a married woman may, depending on all sorts of variables if I remember correctly.
Apr 4, 2014 at 19:53 comment added Double AA @Danno My point was the only distinctions you drew were gender ones, ie. not so related.
Apr 4, 2014 at 16:37 comment added rosends @DoubleAA yes, these are other distinctions. I'm not sure how that relates, though. The questionm was about differentiating between an eved kna'ani and a woman, not between a man and a woman. If your point is that an eved kna'ani is mchuyav in all the things a Jewish man is, then that would be your overall answer to the question.
Apr 4, 2014 at 14:30 comment added Double AA @Danno A women doesn't have the laws of Keri or Milah. (And for the record men and women are equally obligated not to be a partner in sex-with-a-niddah.)
Apr 4, 2014 at 14:29 comment added rosends The eved Kna'ani doesn't have the laws of niddah so I see a difference between an eved and a woman.
Apr 4, 2014 at 10:09 comment added WhoKnows @ray But that does not delineate between the two. What's the difference in terms of obligation?
Apr 4, 2014 at 7:59 comment added ray also an eved is not necessarily born a slave. so he might have acquired the mitzvot later in life

Apr 4, 2014 at 7:31 comment added ray isn't freedom from being a slave a reason to be thankful?
