What reading level is A Brief Examination of Scripture Testimony On the Institution of Slavery in An book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Having shown from the Scriptures, that slavery existed with Abraham and the patriarchs, with divine approbation, and having shown from the same source, that the Almighty incorporated it in the law, as an institution among Abraham's seed, until the coming of Christ, our precise object now is, to ascertain whether Jesus Chris! has abohshed it, or recognized it as a lawful relation, existing among men, and prescribed duties which belong to it, as he has other relative duties ; such as those betwee...n husband and wife, parent and child, magistrate and subject.
And first, I may take it for granted, without proof, that he has not abolished it by commandment, for none pretend to this. This, by the way, is a singular cir- cumstance, that Jesus Christ should put a system of measures into operation, which have for their object the subjugation of all men to him as a law-giver — kings, legis- lators, and private citizens in all nations; at a time, too, when hereditary slavery existed in all ; and after it had been incor- porated for fifteen hundred years into the Jewish constitution, immediately given by God himself.
