The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celeb...rated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever moreLESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

This day shall be a day of remembrance for you. You shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD; throughout your generations you ...shall observe it as a perpetual ordinance. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread; on the first day you shall remove leaven from your houses, for whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day shall be cut off from Israel. On the first day you shall hold a solemn assembly, and on the seventh day a solemn assembly; no work shall be done on those days; only what everyone must eat, that alone may be prepared by you.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
