History of the Sabbath, Or Day of Holy Rest (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from History of the Sabbath, or Day of Holy Rest

The Object Of the Author in this little Work has been to put the reader in possession of information, in a condensed form, on the subject of the Sabbath. The word Sabbath has been deliberately chosen, in the title of the Book, as representing an idea which belongs to the Christian dispensation equally as to. The Patri archal or Jewish.

The quotations from the Fathers have been extracted from the original writers by the Author himself; a course which, although it involved much labour, he felt would be more satisfactory to his readers than if he had limited himself to references or extracts from other writers, however great their accuracy. The same remark applies to all the other quotations, with one or two unimportant exceptions.
