Subject:       Sabbath, dawn to dusk?

Dear Eddie:

Recently I was challenged by the argument posed by an individual of the
International Congregation of Yahweh which says that the idea that a sundown
to sundown day, particularly in the sense that Sabbath is celebrated from
sundown to sundown is unbiblical and that the sabbath DAY goes from dawn to
shortly after sundown and that this is the only portion of time that the
sabbath occupies.  It was stated that the verse which says, "from even unto
even shall you celebrate your sabbath" Lev. 23:32 deals specifically with
the day of Atonements and with no other sabbath hence this verse cannot be
used as a proof-text for the sunset to sunset sabbath.

Many proofs to backup his argument were given.  I would like to receive as
much information as possible so that I may, if necessary, refute this argument.

Please, please respond,

Sincerely,

Andre' Peppel
