5.0 out of 5 stars A Simple, Practical & Joyful Guide for ANY Family!, January 21, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Celebrating the Sabbath: The Messianic Jewish Way (Paperback)

What a delight for those interested in learning more about the Biblical sabbath and how joyful it is to truly find your "rest" in the Messiah! This booklet is a practical guide that will "walk" any believer (Jew or Gentile) through one of the primary Feasts of the Bible (see Leviticus 23:1-3). Blessings in English and Hebrew, songs, recipes, challah cover designs, are just a few of the helpful instructions -- all written in a simple, humble manner. Enjoy! And Shabbat Shalom!

This review is from: The Sabbath: Entering God's Rest (Paperback)

This little book is a refreshing and informative guide on how you and your family can celebrate and observe the Sabbath that God gave us and commanded us to keep. Unlike many of the Christian books out there about the "Sabbath" (Sunday), this one explains why the Sabbath is actually Saturday. As a Christian seeker of God's truth, I found this book easy to understand, interesting, informative, and very helpful to me and my family.

I thought this was a good starter booklet for someone who is new to the Sabbath keeping concept. However, as for myself who's been there for a few years, I was actually expecting better. Personally, the thing that mostly disappointed me was that it applied some ritual prayers of Judaism which I believe contradicted the Scriptures. Thank you.
