- Ezra Stiles Gannett, Channing's assistant and eventual successor at Federal Street Church,
continued Channing's explorations of theological positions about social equality among races and
among men and women.
- In this 1857 sermon, Gannett stated, "While the true ground of equality between
the sexes lies in those doctrines which Christ has established, the rightful position of women is
asserted throughout the whole history of the Jewish people, from Miriam (Moses' sister) to
the books of the Prophets."
