Constantine's Legislation Concerning The Pagan Sunday by Abram Herbert Lewis is a historical and legal analysis of the laws passed by Emperor Constantine in the early 4th century regarding the observance of Sunday. The book explores the background of the legislation, which was aimed at replacing the traditional pagan day of worship with the Christian Sabbath. Lewis examines the historical context of the laws, including the role of the Christian church in the Roman Empire, the influence of pagan religions, and the political motivations behind the legislation. The book also provides a detailed analysis of the legal aspects of the laws, including their scope, enforcement, and impact on religious practice. Through this comprehensive analysis, Constantine's Legislation Concerning The Pagan Sunday offers a unique perspective on the early history of Christianity and its relationship with the Roman Empire.THIS 20 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Paganism Surviving in Christianity, by Abram Herbert Lewis.
