To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The fact that Christ and apostles ad- mitted these masters, with these slaves, to the same communion, proves that the comment of Mr. Barnes is preposterous. The fact that these Christian slaves are commanded to treat these pretended oppressors as "brethren, faithful and beloved, partakers of the bene- fit, " proves it. Do the apostles, while enjoining pa- tience under the persecutions of a bloody Nero, admit that Nero, with his brutality, to the same Cliristian communion with the peaceful and h...oly victims, address him as " saint and faithful in Christ Jesus, " and in- struct him to burn and tear the Christians for their faith, in a godly manner? The comment is disproved by Pe- ter, when he says that there were slave-owners who were "good and gentle, " as well as others who were " froward. " Does truth or common sense distinguish "good and gentle" persecutors? It is disproved far- ther, by the fact that the apostles do not enjoin patience only, on these servants, as on Christians forbearing un- der an injury; but they enjoin duty, obedience, and fidelity also, as upon Christians paying reciprocal obli- gations.
