Ellen Gould White über: "What does Ellen White write about the sea and galley slaves?"
Answer
Ellen White describes that during the persecution of Protestantism in France over centuries, faithful and upright men had to work as galley slaves. This form of punishment affected people who stood firm for their faith and would rather suffer than deny biblical truth. The oppression ultimately caused valuable forces to leave the country, contributing to the moral and economic decline of France.
Galley Slaves and the Persecution in France
»Century after century, men of principle and integrity, men with sharp minds and moral strength, who had the courage to profess their convictions and the faith to suffer for the truth—centuries long these men toiled as slaves on the galleys, perished on the pyre, or rotted in prisons.«
»France banned the Bible. Century after century, men of integrity, of intellectual and moral strength, who had the faith to suffer for the truth, toiled as slaves on the galleys, perished on the pyre, or rotted in prison cells.«

Why I built EGW Vision
Hello, I am Stephan Krol. I started this Ellen White website to make the writings of Ellen G. White and the Adventist pioneers easier to access for everyone.
EGW Vision helps you find topics, statements, and quotes faster, especially when many original sources are not yet fully available in your language. The tool searches semantically, groups relevant content by topic, and presents matching results as clearly as possible in your language.
My hope is that this tool supports personal Bible study, strengthens trust in the original sources, and helps more people discover the message of these writings with clarity, depth, and joy.
