Abram Herbert Lewis

Born in 1836, Abram Herbert Lewis was an American Seventh Day Baptist minister, editor, and scholar. He became known for writing and speaking about the Sabbath, church history, and the relationship between Christianity and society.

Lewis served as a professor of church history at Alfred University in New York and was a major voice in Seventh Day Baptist publishing. He wrote several books, including A Critical History of Sunday Legislation, Biblical Teachings Concerning the Sabbath and the Sunday, Spiritual Sabbathism, and Paganism in Christianity.

His career joined ministry, teaching, and public argument, and his books show a writer deeply engaged with both historical research and religious debate. He died in 1908, leaving behind a body of work that remained important to readers interested in Sabbath history and Protestant thought.
