The Sabbath in the Old Testament and the Intertestamental Period
From the opening lines of the Hebrew Bible to the last book of the canon of the Christian church, the Sabbath features prominently as a time of rest, fellowship for believers, and particularly worship of God, reminding humanity of His work of creation and redemption and touching on other important themes of Scripture. During the last two decades, Jewish and Christian scholars, theologians, historians, and practitioners have demonstrated renewed interest in the Sabbath. This two-volume set is a scholarly contribution to the discussion of the Sabbath from a Seventh-day Adventist perspective. Each volume explores the biblical concept and theology of the Sabbath and implications for Christians in the twenty-first century. Authors from around the world have contributed to each volume, providing diversity of perspective to the central Sabbath theme. Volume 1 covers the exegesis of key Old Testament passages on the Sabbath and examines the Sabbath theology found in major sections of the Hebrew Bible and the Jewish literature of the Intertestamental period (Second Temple period).
Come Boldly to the Throne
The companion book to the Adult Sabbath School Lesson for third quarter, 2003 The Theme of Hebrews is Jesus. Written to new Christians who were tempted to waiver between the old way of Judaism and the new, living way of Christ, Hebrews is a no-holds-barred argument on why Christianity is superior. New Testament scholar Ekkehardt Mueller takes us on an incredible voyage into the heavens themselves, where Jesus, our High Priest, ever liveth to make intercession for us. Come Boldly to the Throne reveals the reality of Christ's ministry in the heavenly sanctuary and the importance of that ministry to His people on earth. In these pages we see the Cross revealed in the only context that can fully explain its significance -- the heavenly sanctuary. You will rejoice in the hope, promises, and assurance that exudes from every page of this faith-affirming book

Remarriage in Early Christianity
What did early Christians believe about remarriage after divorce? The New Testament sends mixed messages about divorce. Jesus forbids it in Mark’s and Luke’s Gospels, but he seems to make an exception for victims of infidelity in Matthew’s Gospel. Paul permits divorce in 1 Corinthians when an unbeliever initiates it. Yet other Pauline passages imply that remarriage after divorce constitutes adultery. A. Andrew Das confronts this dissonance in Remarriage in Early Christianity. Challenging scholarly consensus, Das argues that early Christians did not approve of remarriage after divorce. His argument—covering contemporary Jewish and Greco-Roman contexts, the Gospels, Paul’s letters, a...
Visions of Turmoil and Eternal Rest
One of the most fascinating periods of history must certainly be around the time of Daniel the prophets time (sixth and fifth centuries B.C.). It was then that many of the philosophies that were to exert a telling influence on Western thought and Christianity arose. This is the period when Buddha, Confucius, Lao-Tzu, Zoroaster and Pythagoras developed their ideas. In this book, we consider the coded messages written by Daniel and later by the apostle John (preserved in the Bible). History offers outstanding confirmation of the accuracy of their predictions. We indicate how past and developing world events fit into the fabric of prophecy.
Exploring the Heavenly Sanctuary
This book reveals whether there is a temple in heaven and what its purpose is. Christ is revealed as our High Priest who intercedes for us. This is the heart of the Seventh-day Adventist message. Issues addressed include: Can we be sure there is a real temple in heaven? What is the purpose of this temple? When does the judgement start? Do we need to keep the Ten Commandments? Should we observe a literal Sabbath? And much more. The heavenly sanctuary reveals Jesus who ever intercedes for us (Hebrews 7:25). ""An extremely thorough, engaging presentation of the framework of Seventh-day Adventist beliefs."" - Kirkus Review
