Nice, short, and easy reading on the proper keeping of the New Testament Sabbath. Ray shows how the Sabbath was corrupted by Israel such that what we usually think of as Sabbath keeping is actually a quasi-pagan practice, not the restful, joyful day that Christ established. Ray refuses to give a list of do’s and dont’s of how to properly keep (celebrate) the Sabbath but rather gives some principles to follow and explains how the specifics of keeping the day can look different from one person to the next.

The book is perhaps too brief and at points it can feel like Ray is trying to be catchy rather than serious. But don’t let that scare you away. It is not an intimidating read like many works on the Sabbath.

A good read if you are convinced (or suspect) that “there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God” (Heb 4:9) in this present age but still question what it means to keep it.
