Back to List of Topics

This is the temporary layout for topic pages. For now this will just be a short description followed by a list of relevant verses. Later on, the verses will be organized into a comprehensive explanation of the topic.

The Sabbath is the period which God has allotted for rest. The Bible variously uses the term "Sabbath" to describe the 7th day of the week, on which Israel was required to cease their work; the Promised Land, where Israel would rest safely with God's protection; slavery to Jesus, whose yoke is easy and whose burden is light, and whose work is restful; and the final destination of believers, heaven. This topic will cover the laws related to the Sabbath, as well as the specific fulfillment of those laws and the implications of that fulfillment on modern believers. If we decide to make a separate topic page for "Work", this topic will have some overlap in content with it.

Questions

• Did Jesus break Biblical law by working on the Sabbath?
