xxiv. 7.) Although the Gospel is intended to make no change or difference in the civil circumstances of mankind who are converted from paganism to Christianity, the master and the slave being equally called, as St. Paul argues at length in 1 Cor. viL 17 — 24.; yet the same apostle (1 Tim. i. 9, 10.), when enumerating various classes of offenders who are obnoxious to law, expressly de- nounces men-stealersy avhpairoBurrals, those who kidnap men, to sell them for slaves : in other words, slave-tr...aders.* ■ Pareau, Antiq. Hebr. pp. 448, 449. Michaelis's Commentaries, toL I pp. 158 — 164. " ** The New Testament,** said Bishop Horsley, in one of his speeches in the House of Lords, ** contains an express reprobation of the slaye-trade by name, as sinfal in a t^ high degree. The apostle, St. Paul, having spoken of persons that were lawless and dis- obedient, ungodly and sinners, unholy and profane, proceeds to specify and distinguish the several characters and descriptions of men to whom he applies those very general epithets; and thi'y are these, — * murderers of fathers, murderers of mothers, man-slayers, they that defile themselves with mankind, men-steaUrs.' **....** This text condemns and pidlibits the slave-trade in one at least of its most productive modes.
