The Sabbath in Modern Jewish Theology

Roy Branson

Abstract

A few Protestant groups, most notably the Seventh-day Adventists, observe the Sabbath on the seventh day of the week, as do Jews. But because most Christians celebrate their Sabbath, or weekly day of worship, on Sunday, they oft en do not recognize or explore the theological resources within Judaism for deepening Christianity’s appreciation of the weekly Sabbath. The present chapter surveys various of the more signifi cant of these resources.
