Publisher's summary

A Short Study of the Sabbath from Creation to Consummation

When it comes to the Sabbath, Christians have different ideas on what it means and how to observe it. For many people, it is a day to go to church and have fellowship with other believers. What they often miss, though, is that the Sabbath is intricately tied to rest and worship―both of which ultimately point to the Lord as our creator and redeemer.

In this addition to the Short Studies in Biblical Theology series, Guy Prentiss Waters offers an introductory study of the Sabbath from the creation of the world to the consummation of all things when Jesus returns. He shows how the Sabbath is observed through the major themes and genres of the Bible―creation, law, prophets, Jesus, and the apostles―and how that applies to our lives today. Waters teaches us about the Sabbath’s full restoration in the new heavens and the new earth and its continual reminder of the covenant that God has made with his people.

  • Written for New Believers and Seasoned Saints Alike: Perfect for laypersons, pastors, college and seminary students, and academics
  • Practical: Examines how the Sabbath is relevant to the church now as well as how it will be restored in the new heavens and the new earth
  • Short Studies in Biblical Theology: Part of a series designed to give audiences accessible volumes on God’s word

Boring…

I hate leaving bad reviews when it’s coming from someone with sound theology but this book was sooo boring and just felt like nothing but facts. I was falling asleep throughout the whole thing.

wrong book, but it was still a good book

This was not "the Sabbath as Rest and Hope for the People of God". It was another of the Biblical Theology series on the Kingdom of God by Patrick Shriener. It was a good book, hence my higher rating, but I hope they fix this.
