Daf Shevui to Kiddushin
Deuteronomy 15:14 states that the slave must be granted from your flock, your threshing floor and your winepress. R. Meir says he must get five selas worth of each, for a total of fifteen selas worth of a gift.
R. Yehudah derives his number from the law concerning an ox that kills a slave—the owner pays 30 shekels (selas).
R. Shimon derives his law from the laws concerning a person who dedicates his own value to the Temple. An adult male is worth fifty shekels.
