History of the Sabbath and first day of the week

This volume takes listeners on a sweeping journey through six millennia of the seventh‑day Sabbath, beginning with its origin in the very act of creation. It traces how the divine pattern of rest was first given to humanity in Eden, codified in the Fourth Commandment, and faithfully observed by patriarchs, prophets, apostles and even the Son of God himself. By grounding the narrative in Scripture, the author shows the Sabbath’s central role in the biblical story and its enduring spiritual significance.

Turning to the broader canvas of world history, the second part investigates how the ancient Sabbath was gradually eclipsed by the rise of a weekly Sunday celebration. Drawing on original sources, the work examines early church developments, political influences, and the controversies that reshaped the calendar. Listeners will gain a clear picture of the arguments and evidence surrounding this pivotal shift, presented with scholarly care and an eye for honesty.
