    The slaves viewed the emancipation proclamation as a blessing because all slaves held in rebellious areas would be free.

    The Proclamation only gave the Lincoln Administration the legal basis to free the slaves in the areas of the South that were still in rebellion on January 1, 1863. It effectively destroyed slavery as the Union armies advanced south and conquered the entire Confederacy.
