In this influential treatise on the morality of slavery, Albert Barnes examines the Bible’s teachings on the subject and argues that it is incompatible with Christian principles. Barnes draws upon close readings of Scripture to show that the institution of slavery is at odds with the Biblical ideals of love, justice, and human dignity. He also critiques the arguments put forth by defenders of slavery, including the assertion that it was sanctioned by the Bible and that it was a necessary evil. With its insightful exegesis and impassioned rhetoric, this book played a crucial role in the abolitionist movement in the United States.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the 'public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
