In keeping with his previous publications, Graeme Goldsworthy s latest volume is a biblical-theological tour de force. Rather than laboriously working through the usual proof texts in the perennial Christian debate concerning Sabbath rest, the author examines this topic within its broader biblical theological context, masterfully demonstrating how the prospect of rest with God finds its eschatological fulfilment. Readers are thus helped to think carefully about the topic in a biblically-informed manner. This stimulating and pastorally encouraging discussion will surely enrich the spiritual lives of us all. --Paul Williamson, lecturer in Old Testament, Hebrew and Aramaic, Moore Theological College, Sydney
Graeme Goldsworthy applies a lifetime of in-depth scholarships to the current existential sense of spiritual homelessness , reflecting along the way with the themes of the exile from Eden and the unhelpful and helpful ways of considering the city . He deftly guides the reader to think biblically about the notion of rest and the Sabbath. The result is an accessible, beautifully written book that focuses on Christ and the writings of his apostles, all within a sensible overall theological framework. --Paul Barnett, Lecturer Emeritus, Moore Theological College, Sydney
What is your life s goal? In this concise, clear, and convincing book Graeme Goldsworthy explores this fundamental question through a masterful interweaving of three biblical themes. To bring the storylines of exile, the city, and sabbath together is novel, but within a framework of biblical theology the exercise proves to be rewarding. I enthusiastically commend this book, which can be enjoyed by novice and expert alike. --Andrew Shead, Head of Department of Old Testament and Hebrew, Moore Theological College, Sydney
A thorough but highly accessible guide to thinking more creatively and biblically about the theme of Sabbath Rest throughout Scripture. Homeward Bound examines the biblical theme of 'rest' and how this should impact on our understanding of faith and life. While many Christians today have focused on a Sabbath rest as somehow just relating to what we do or do not do on a Sunday, Goldsworthy takes the reader on a journey of discovery through the whole Bible to show that God's idea of Sabbath rest goes far beyond taking one day a week off work. In fact, the idea of a Sabbath rest for God's people is deeply embedded in the whole history of humanity, from creation to Revelation. With an expert eye and a light touch, Goldsworthy looks at key areas of the Christian idea of rest, including the Sabbath day, the idea of the promised land, return from exile, heaven as the Christian's final 'home', and ultimately the final consummation of time in 'the kingdom of God', the new creation. Goldsworthy expertly shows how the themes and ideas of rest in the Old Testament foreshadow truths that are ultimately revealed in the New Testament.
