Verse 2
THE HAPPY SABBATH-KEEPER
“Blessed is the man … that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it.”
Isaiah 56:2
I. The sabbath is ‘polluted’ when it is spent in mere idleness.
II. When it is devoted to worldly amusement.
III. By all labour which may not fairly come under the description of works of necessity and mercy.
