520 _a"The Anti-Slavery Examiner, Part 4 of 4" by the American Anti-Slavery Society is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This publication serves as an examination of biblical and moral arguments against slavery, specifically challenging the notion that slavery can be justified by Scripture. It argues that both the moral teachings of Jesus Christ and the principles of American liberty fundamentally oppose the practices of slavery in the United States. The opening of this volume launches into an intense exploration of the moral and theological implications of slavery, particularly focusing on its justification through religious doctrine. It opens by questioning whether Jesus Christ condones American slavery, citing various laws and moral philosophies to argue that the institution fundamentally contradicts the essence of humanity and divinity. It presents a thorough critique of both historical and contemporary rationalizations for slavery, refuting them with appeals to self-evident truths of equality and justice. This initial section indicates that the publication aims to mobilize readers against the institution of slavery by appealing to both their reasoning and moral principles.
