Remember the Sabbath Day

Commenting upon the use of the word remember in connection with the fourth commandment, Henry T. Scholl, D. D., in the Christian Observer of Dec. 24, 1913, says:—
The use of "remember," in connection with the fourth commandment, "implies that the weekly rest day was not a new institution." It was observed before Sinai was reached. "The Sabbath," says H. Clay Trumbull, "was a recognized institution long before the days of Moses. Traces of its strict observance in the ancestral home of Abraham are disclosed in the Assyrian records unearthed in these later days."
