1 | Does Is.66:23 mean sabbath still stands? | Is 66:23 | Elder | 232436 | ||
Yes it does. The Sabbath was never done away with and never will be according to HEB 4:9 NIV There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; there was only one ordained rest for the people of God and that was the weekly sabbath! | ||||||

Elder, I don't think there is any way that Hebrews 4 is speaking of the weekly sabbath. The context of the passage makes that interpretation basically impossible due to statements such as: Heb 4:1 Therefore, let us fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it. and Heb 4:4 For He has said somewhere concerning the seventh day: "AND GOD RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL HIS WORKS"; Heb 4:5 and again in this passage, "THEY SHALL NOT ENTER MY REST." Heb 4:6 Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly had good news preached to them failed to enter because of disobedience, We could go on unpacking the context to show that referring to the weekly jewish sabbath makes absolutely no sense in the context. Rather what the writer was discussing is the eternal final rest of God's people which the weekly sabbath pointed to. However, this does not at all show that the sabbath is done away with. It merely is to say that Hebrews 4 does not at all address the question. In Christ, Beja |

Actually it's talking about 3 different Sabbaths in those verses 1) Seventh Day, 2) Kingdom of God, 3) Those who were preached the good news to (about the Sabbath) and choose not to keep it. I have come a cross alot of people in my life time and told me that they know the Sabbath is "right" but that's not the way they were raised. | ||||||
