Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an investigation of the origins and application of the Sabbath, from its ancient precedents to the author's own historical context. The author seeks to demonstrate that the strict observance of the Sabbath is rooted not in divine law but in human tradition and social custom. They trace the evolution of Sabbath-keeping from its origins in ancient civilizations through its adoption by Christianity and subsequent codification into modern laws. The author delves into the historical and social forces that have shaped our understanding of the Sabbath and questions its continued relevance in a world vastly different from that of its inception. The book concludes by advocating for a more nuanced and individualized approach to Sabbath observance, one that respects both tradition and personal conscience.
