How to use sabbath in a sentence?

1. Ben Carson:

   There isn't anything that's non-mainstream Christian about Seventh day Adventists -- the one exception may be that they believe that Saturday is the Sabbath, simply because that's what the Bible says, that doesn't mean that people who worship on Sunday are evil people or doomed, I don't believe that.

2. D. L. Moody:

   When the Sabbath goes, the church goes. When the Church goes, the family goes. When the family goes, the nation goes.

3. Alice Walker:

   Anybody can observe the Sabbath, but making it holy surely takes the rest of the week.

4. Rabbi Scheinberg:

   As Jews – we are used to not being intimidated by any type of assault, we know that the best thing we could do is continue – and this Sabbath I believe we will have more people than in many weeks before.

5. Assemblyman Dov Hikind:

   A lot of people use these hotplates to keep food warm for the next day, they put them on Friday and they are left on for the entire Sabbath, 25 hours.
