An Inquiry Into The Scriptural Views Of Slavery is a book written by Albert Barnes in 1857. The book is a comprehensive examination of the Bible's stance on slavery, and its relevance to the debate surrounding the issue in the United States at the time. Barnes was a prominent theologian and Presbyterian minister who believed that the Bible was the ultimate authority on moral and ethical issues, including slavery. In this book, he explores the biblical passages that deal with slavery, including the Old and New Testaments, and examines the historical context in which they were written. Barnes argues that the Bible does not condone slavery as an institution, but rather provides guidelines for the humane treatment of slaves. He also discusses the role of Christianity in the abolitionist movement and the moral imperative to end slavery. An Inquiry Into The Scriptural Views Of Slavery is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the religious and moral debates surrounding slavery in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
