Publisher's Synopsis
First Day Sabbath Not Of Divine Appointment: With The Opinions Of Calvin, Luther, Belsham, Melancthon, Barclay, Paley, And Others is a book written by Henry Clarke Wright and published in 1846. The book argues that the traditional Christian practice of observing the Sabbath on Sunday (the first day of the week) is not based on divine appointment, but rather on human tradition. Wright examines the opinions of various theologians and scholars, including John Calvin, Martin Luther, Thomas Belsham, Philip Melancthon, Robert Barclay, and William Paley, among others, to support his argument. The book provides a historical and theological analysis of the Sabbath and its observance, and challenges readers to reconsider their understanding of this important aspect of Christian practice. Overall, First Day Sabbath Not Of Divine Appointment is a thought-provoking and informative work that sheds new light on a fundamental aspect of Christian tradition.A Letter To The Committee Of The Edinburgh Emancipation Society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
