Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect. - Gal 3:17
In 1435 the Portugese began removing Israelites from West Africa. If the slaves were freed in 1865 (marked by the surrender of General Lee in the Civil War), could this prophecy refer to those who were brought to America in ships?
And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you. - Deu 28:68
