The Sabbath Versus Sunday

A CORRESPONDENT of the Chicago Israelite, in a letter which appeared in the issue of that paper for May 29, argues against the work of those Jewish reformers who are advocating such changes as would bring the Jews more closely into harmony with orthodox Christians. One paragraph in this letter will be of special interest:—

The Reform rabbi advocates doing away with the Sabbath and accepting Sunday. His reasons are that it is in accordance with the twentieth century and modern times: while the Seventh-day Adventists, who are believers in Christ, and are also living in the twentieth century of their religion, have delegates from Europe, South America, Japan, Asia Minor, China, Canada, and Mexico assembled at Takoma Park, at Washington, D. C., and are advocating the doing away with Sunday and keeping the Sabbath holy according to the teachings of the ten commandments received by us on Mt. Sinai through Moses.

All Christians ought to stand for the observance of the true Sabbath.
