Benefit of Keeping the Sabbath
Exodus 20:8-11
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.…


In the "Life of Frank Buckland," the eminent naturalist, who devoted himself so thoroughly to the scientific and practical study of the river and sea fisheries of Great Britain, there is the following testimony to the value of Sunday rest: — March, 1866. I am now working from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., and then a bit in the evening — fourteen hours a day; but, thank God, it does not hurt me. I should, however, collapse if it were not for Sunday. The machinery has time to get cool, the mill-wheel ceases to patter the water, the mill-head is ponded up, and the superfluous water let off by an easy, quiet current, which leads to things above."
