In this essay Kuyper discusses the formal, material, and institutional character of the Lord’s Day. At the beginning of the essay, he indicates that the Sabbath rest is based not only on the fourth commandment, but also on consciousness of the rhythmic weekly cycle, which was originally ordained by God in his work of Creation and was once again made known to human beings after the fall through common grace. As in 1907.17, Kuyper asserts that a divine ordinance is at stake, concluding that “the observance of the Lord’s day becomes a problem not exclusively concerning the Church, but a world problem of universal importance.”
Kuyper originally intended to deliver this essay as a lecture at the World’s Bible Congress (see also 1915.18), which took place in San Francisco on August 1–4, 1915, during the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. The exposition was celebrating the opening of the Panama Canal (August 15, 1914). He had to abandon his plans to attend the congress, however, due to the threat posed to transatlantic traffic by mines and submarines—and perhaps also because he did not want to interrupt his long-standing annual visit during July/August to a clinic near Dresden.
