This consideration dives deeply into the biblical narrative, using classical and modern commentaries to explore the social, psychological, religious, and philosophical dimensions of the slave experience and mentality. It draws on slave narratives, published letters, eyewitness accounts, and recorded interviews wSlavery in the BibleSlavery and JudaismSlaveryUnited StatesHistorySlavery in the Bible.Slavery and Judaism.SlaveryHistory.221.7Chelst Kenneth1543809MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789913103321Exodus and emancipation3797441UNINA
