- When
- March 1878
- Where
- Richmond, Virginia
John Jasper first preached his sermon 'The Sun Do Move' in March 1878, grounded in Biblical revelation. Richmond, Virginia is retained as the locality from his documented ministry there and the legacy row.
The supplied passage states that Jasper first preached this sermon in March 1878 on the basis of Biblical revelation. The specific day of March 17 comes from the legacy row and is not confirmed by any supplied passage, so the date is held at month precision. Richmond, Virginia is given as the occurrence locality because Jasper's Richmond ministry is documented and the legacy row points there; no passage names the 1878 venue, and First African Baptist Church is attested only as where he began preaching in 1840, not as the site of this sermon.
