...to Toronto, Canada, in 1848 and soon thereafter to England. Working as an antislavery lecturer, Green published his forty-three page Narrative of the Life of J. D.

[Dismantled houses] here and there appeared, tottering to the earth, propped up by fragments of others that had fallen...

The third allusion is to God's meeting with Jacob at Bethel ( 12:4 b ), attested in both Gen. 28:10–22 (J) and 35:9–15 (P). At 12:7–8 the...
