vs 15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
I have found in a commentary (Vine's) on the Mishna that it was supposedly forbidden for slaves to refer to the head of the family as Abba. Does that hold up? What else do we know about "Abba".
Particularly, I'm interested in the use of "Abba" in Romans 8.
