The Sabbath’s God-Given Name

An opponent of the Sabbath of the Bible says: "When the word 'Sabbath' was used of the seventh day, it was used simply as the long-established name of that day." Very true. No better reason could be given for calling the seventh day the Sabbath than that that is its name. "The seventh day is the Sabbath." God himself gave it its name, and it is daring presumption on the part of any man to deprive it of its rightful title, or to transfer it to another day.
