Jesus constantly seemed to take aim at the Sabbath practices of his day. Before we begin to ask what that means for us and whether or not we should be observing a Sabbath today, the Eikon Living team analyzes what Sabbath was, what it was intended for, and how it was approached by many of the Jewish believers of Jesus’ day. The reality is, they conclude, that Sabbath was a much bigger and deeper concept than we tend to understand today, a reality that has major implications for how we might think about and approach Sabbath today. They then discuss why the early Christians were so opposed to a physical observation of Sabbath and whether contemporary Christians should observe Sabbath, and if so, what it might look like.
