"Bible Against Slaveholders" is a powerful antislavery treatise published in 1849. In this passionate appeal, the author, writing as "Friend Of Freedom And The Prepetuity Of The Union," argues against the justification of slavery using biblical texts. The work critiques interpretations of the Bible that were used to support the institution of slavery, offering counter-arguments and moral condemnations. This historical document provides insight into the religious and ethical debates surrounding slavery in the United States during the mid-19th century. It showcases the use of religious rhetoric in the abolitionist movement and highlights the deep divisions within American society on the issue of human bondage.
