• Bright shadows of true rest! some shoots of bliss;
  Heaven once a week;
  The next world's gladness prepossest in this;
  A day to seek;
  Eternity in time; the steps by which
  We climb above all ages: lamps that light
  Man through his heap of dark days; and the rich
  And full redemption of the whole week's flight.

  Henry Vaughan

• ¡Oh! bienvenidos a la Tierra cansada
  Llega el descanso sabático,
  Reuniendo a los hijos del trabajo y el cuidado
  De vuelta a sus pacíficos hogares;
  Y, como un portal a los cielos,
  abre la Casa de Dios,
  Donde todos los que buscan pueden venir y aprender
  El camino que recorrió el Salvador.
  Pero más santo le parece al caminante
  El sábado en las profundidades,
  Cuando sigue, y sigue, en incesante curso,
  La barca trabajadora debe mantener,
  Y ni rastro del hombre aparece
  En medio del desierto
  De aguas--entonces viene como paloma
  Directo del cielo a bendecir.

  Sarah Josepha Hale

• At least one indication of unbelief is the tendency to measure life's challenges against our own adequacy instead of God's promises. To enter our Sabbath rest, we must put an end to self-reliance - trusting in our own abilities to overcome difficulties, rise above challenges, escape tragedies, or achieve personal greatness.

• As a moral and social institution, a weekly rest is invaluable. It is a quiet domestic reunion for the bustling sons of toil. It ensures the necessary vacation in those earthly and turbulent anxieties and affections, which would otherwise become inordinate and morbid. It brings around a season of periodical neatness and decency, when the soil of weekly labour is laid aside, and men meet each other amidst the decencies of the sanctuary, and renew their social affections. But above all, a Sabbath (one day of rest in seven) is necessary for man's moral and religious interests.

  Robert Dabney

• I am no preacher of the old legal Sabbath. I am a preacher of the gospel. The Sabbath of the Jew is to him a task; the Lord's Day of the Christian, the first day of the week, is to him a joy, a day of rest, of peace, and of thanksgiving. And if you Christian men can earnestly drive away all distractions, so that you can really rest today, it will be good for your bodies, good for your souls, good mentally, good spiritually, good temporally, and good eternally.

  Charles Spurgeon
