The Bible says that the people of Israel would be taken to a land they didn’t know, their children would be taken from them, their wives would be raped, their bodies left for the birds to eat. Sound like the Trans-Atlantic slave trade and American slavery?
The Lord will take you back in ships to Egypt by a route that I said you would never see again. There you will sell yourselves to your enemies as male and female slaves, but no one will buy you.”Deuteronomy 28:68 CSB
