Along with Joseph Pipa's The Lord's Day and Walt Chantry's Call the
Sabbath a Delight, Jeremy Walker's Our Chief of Days: The Principle,
Purpose and Practice of the Lord's Day is destined to become a helpful confirmation to many Christians of the abiding significance of the Sabbath, and a probing challenge to non-sabbatarians to rethink their understanding of the fourth commandment. Walker carefully and sensitively expounds the abiding nature of the Sabbath for the church and, with judicious quotes from history, illuminates God's wisdom in giving his church in all ages a
prescribed rhythm of rest and work. The chapter on how Christians should practically keep the Lord's day, the Christian Sabbath, is especially thoughtful and sane, avoiding the danger of an incipient or expressed legalism. Walker's brief book is engaging, clear, untechnical, and eminently biblical. I highly recommend it.
