Description
Excerpt from A Scriptural Examination of the Institution of Slavery in the United States: With Its Objects and Purposes
Why should any one be astonished at slavery? This is not the only time that it has been employed as a means of working out great purposes. God''s chosen and peculiar people they who first composed the Church; they to whom the oracles of salvation were delivered they of whom the prophets were they from whom the Redeemer of the world sprang, were enslaved in as hard, perhaps in much harder bondage, than has ever been experienced by Africans in the United States - a bondage from which they were delivered only aftera series of the most astonishing displays of the Divine displeasure, in?icted upon their oppressors for their obstinacy in refusing to let the people go.
