The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: daughters to be servants, and some of our daughters are brought unto
bondage already: neither is it in our power to redeem them; for other
men have our lands and vineyards.
NEH 5:6 And I was very angry when I heard their cry and these words.
NEH 5:7 Then I consulted with myself, and I rebuked the nobles, and the
rulers, and said unto them, Ye exact usury, every one of his brother.
And I set a great assembly against them.
NEH 5:8 And I said unto them, We after our ability have redeemed our
brethren the Jews, which were sold unto the heathen; and will ye even
sell your brethren? or shall they be sold unto us? Then held they their
peace, and found nothing to answer.
