Read the excerpt and answer the question. And seeing GOD hath said, He that Stealeth a Man and Selleth him, or if he be found in

his hand, he shall surely be put to Death. Exod. 12.16. This Law being of Everlasting Equity, wherein Man Stealing is ranked amongst the most atrocious of Capital Crimes: What louder Cry can there be made of the Celebrated Warning, Caveat Emptor! What is the meaning of this excerpt from Sewall's "The Selling of Joseph"? Slavery is a crime against God. Selling slaves is punishable by the church. God will punish those who sell stolen goods. Stealing is never mentioned in the Bible.
