The Complete Testimony of the Fathers of the First Three Centuries Concerning the Sabbath and First Day (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book explores how the observance of the Sabbath changed over time. The author examines early Christian writings, including those of Justin Martyr, to demonstrate that the Sabbath was originally observed on the seventh day of the week, but that over time, the first day of the week, or Sunday, became more widely observed. The author argues that this change was not based on any biblical mandate but rather on a gradual shift in practice within the early church. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the historical development of Sabbath observance, shedding light on the origins of the modern-day Sunday Sabbath and the diverse perspectives on its significance throughout Christian history.
