Overview

Excerpt from The Sabbath Institution: Traced and Defended in Its History and Changes Some regard the Sabbath as an Institution, as an appointment of God for-the religious improve ment Of the race - making a clear distinction be tween the appointment or Institution, and the time devoted to its Observance. Others regard the Sabbath as a particular day - as identical with a given day or measurement of time, and so they seem at least to contend for time-keeping rather than for an Institution proper. The latter keep the seventh day of the week, reckoning from the Jewish Sabbath, and after the manner of the Jews in beginning and ending their days with the ap pearance of the stars while the former appropri ate to the Institution the first day of the week, reckoning from the resurrection of Christ, and after the usual manner of mankind in the matter of beginning and ending the days.
