Quotations from our authors:

"If one should limit himself only to ... pieces of undisputed authenticity, it would be impossible to make any real progress, owing to their scarcity. It is therefore necessary to examine the rich patristic and apocryphal literature while keeping in mind its limitations." - Pg. 15 - patristic literature

"Tertullian uses the Latin equivalent 'dominicus dies' in De oratione 23 and De corona 3. This became the official designation for Sunday in the Latin languages (cf. domenica, dimanche)." - dimanche

"It is also the hope that earnest readers may be stimulated through a better understanding of the meaning of God's holy day to search for a deeper fellowship with the 'Lord of the Sabbath' (Mark 2:28)." - Pg. 16 - Lord of the Sabbath
