An In-Depth Look at the SabbathBy Josiah Luke SpencerThis book is not for the faint of heart. This is no cursory treatment of the issue of the Sabbath. It is an in-depth; academic treatment. If you're really looking to dive in deeply; this is a great tool. If you're looking for something lighter; look elsewhere. This is long and heavy.3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Amazing historical researchBy Bernard RedigerIt gives great insight to the initial responses and interpretations to the finished work of Christ and then how things would ebb an flow during later periods of time. It was done in a spirit of relating observations for what substantiated their evaluation and not trying to prove another understanding wrong. However; it did a good job of presenting their observations that made it clear what the differences were and why. It has been very helpful for me in that it provided solid reasoning for what I thought I believed; yet i would not have been able to articulate it even to my self.Unless you have the time; the gift/skill; and motivation for research into the depths and you want to understand why anyone could possibly say that there is a difference about how one commandments requirement could change; then it is a great resource.
