“Sabbath and Sunday is a thoughtful and timely kaleidoscopic biblical and theological overview from well-established writers, invites the readers to go beyond the narrow piousness in our understanding of “Sabbath” and to re-examine the true biblical and theological teachings. Without a doubt the book is very relevant, practical, informative and an excellent resource to move forward the Christian understanding and practice of Sabbath in our context and to reach out into the wider world.”
