Shabbat: Then, Now, & Beyond | Rev. David Pileggi_1
When we read about Jesus confronting a rural, unlearned synagogue official over Sabbath observance we can easily misunderstand Jesus’ teaching about the 7th day of the week and also His teaching on the Torah in general. This incident raises questions on how we Christians should approach the Sabbath. Does it have more value for us than simply a day of rest? Our communities can gain invaluable insights from some of the great Jewish theologians of the past. These insights are not only biblical but point to a deeper understanding that can take us beyond the usual Sabbath controversies.
