Slavery has been practiced since the fall of man. It is not a product of “racism”; it is not an issue of skin color; it is a product of man’s sinful heart. Man’s history can be summarized as “hateful, and hating one another” (Titus 3:3), and that innate hatred has often taken the form of enslavement of one’s fellow man. This book documents the fact slavery has been practiced by the white man, the black man, the red man, the yellow man, and every other kind of man. It was practiced by the Babylonians, the Hittites, the Assyrians, the Egyptians, the Greeks, the Persians, the ancient Brits, the Danes, the Romans, the African kingdoms, the South American kingdoms (e.g., Mayan, Aztec, Inca), the Chinese, Indians, Mongols, Mughals, Burmese, Native North Americans, Muslim kingdoms, Spanish, Mexicans, British, and Americans. It is still practiced in some places (e.g., North Korea, Sudan). Today, international slavery is called “human trafficking.” The book also deals with the abolition of slavery in England and America as a product of biblical influence. The final chapter is “Slavery and the Bible.”
