Overview

Excerpt from Horae Sabbaticae, or an Attempt to Correct Certain Superstitious and Vulgar Errors Respecting the Sabbath Because the Jews were commanded in the Bible to Re member [saturday] the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, certain pharisaical sectarians decided to remember the Sun day, the venerable day of the Sun, and keep it holy in like manner, without any biblical command for so doing. The Bible student will seek in vain throughout its pages for any reference to Sunday observance, as there is no authority whatever in either the Old or New Testa ment for keeping holy the day which the idolatrous Pagans formerly dedicated to the Sun. Christ and his Disciples never proposed so radical an innovation. St. Paul and the Evangelists never advocated such a change. The Apostles were Jews by birth, education, and faith. They were strict observers of Jewish laws and customs, and it was while celebrating the Jewish feast of the Pass over at Jerusalem, that Jesus was betrayed by Judas, and arrested, tried, convicted, and crucified by Pilate.
