To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet slavery was in full existence at the time, throughout Judea ; and the Koman empire, according to Gibbon, contained sixty millions of 12 slaves, on the lowest probable computation ! How prosper- ous and united would our glorious republic be at this hour, if the eloquent and pertinacious declaimers against slavery had been willing to follow their Saviour's example !" That is the argument, and that the deduction. Next follow the two arguments previously quoted to sus- tain in full force the Mo...saic law, and then those passages are given from the Epistles, which direct servants (bond ser- vants or slaves) to be obedient to their masters, concluding with St. Paul's letter to Philemon, by the hands of his 6 fugitive slave' Onesimus. As in the previous case from the Old Testament, where our argument was directed against the general principle, rather than the individual cases, so here we hope to show that the precepts and example of our Saviour rendered the continued existence of slavery impossi- ble ; this being established it will be unnecessary to follow the writer into special details.
