What does Sabbath mean for followers of Yeshua?

Part of a series: questions that make more sense when the Tanakh and the New Testament are read together.

“The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath” (Mark 2:27–28) is not the same claim as “the Sabbath is over” — and Yeshua says it while defending, not abolishing, Sabbath-keeping.

What did keeping the fourth commandment (Exodus 20:8–11) actually look like for his first followers?

  • Exodus 20:8–11
