Keeping the Sabbath Day Holy
Episode 38:
Keeping the Sabbath Day Holy
Gaye Strathearn
August 2021
While many commandments are fairly clear, how to 鈥渞emember the sabbath day, to keep it holy鈥 has been debated for millennia. Professor Gaye Strathearn from BYU Religious Education has researched this discussion during the centuries surrounding Jesus鈥檚 mortal ministry. This episode explores efforts to navigate the Sabbath day by Israelites in the late second temple period, and how we can learn from them to remember and keep the Sabbath holy today.
