“History of the Sabbath,” Revised
IN these days when the Sabbath is being assailed on all sides, and when efforts are being made by strong associations to secure laws for the observance of a rival day, it is essential that individuals know the history of this movement from its very beginning. The “History of the Sabbath” gives the complete history of the Sabbath from creation to the present time. It shows how Sunday, the first day of the week, was introduced into the church, and follows the history of this usurper from the earliest apostasy to the present. History repeats itself, and many of the steps taken in centuries past to force upon the world the observance of a rival day to that of God’s Sabbath, and which finally led to the dark ages and terrible persecutions, are now being seen in the renewed and persistent efforts to bring about Sunday observance by law. Read “The History of the Sabbath,” and be able to detect these modern encroachments upon civil and religious liberty. The book is divided into two grand divisions: Part I, giving the Bible history, and Part II, the secular history, of the Sabbath. The book contains thirty chapters, 864 pages, with copious index, and a brief biography of the authorities quoted. Bound in full cloth, price $1.50. Printed on India paper, bound in flexible leather, $2.50. Order of your tract society.
