The Complete Testimony of the Fathers of the First Three Centuries Concerning the Sabbath and First Day

Note D — Chapter VI

Reading edition

We notice that one first-day writer is so determined that Clement shall testify in behalf of Sunday, that he deliberately changes his words. Instead of giving his words as they are, thus: “the latter, properly the Sabbath,” in which case, as the connection shows, Saturday is the day intended, he gives them thus: “The eighth, properly the Sabbath,” thereby making him call Sunday the Sabbath. This is a remarkable fraud, but it shows that the words as written by Clement could not be made to uphold Sunday. See “The Lord’s Day,” by Rev. G. H. Jenks, p. 50.
