That First-day Sabbath.

By Editor

ABOUT what time may we expect that decision of the college faculty in regard to the Greek of Matt. 28:1? Some time has elapsed since the correspondent of the California Christian Advocate announced his intention to submit it to the faculty of a college for decision. If the professors are capable of filling their position with honor to themselves and profit to their students, they can render a decision without any delay. As we said, we have the decision of an Eastern college on hand, ready to publish when we receive that of the Pacific Coast. Must we wait long? And, by the way, the editor of the Advocate has maintained a "dignified silence" as to the merits of its correspondent's position. Perhaps he stands on this case as he did on Armstrong's argument: It may be of no particular interest to him whether his correspondent is right or wrong!
